Tuna What?
For my final cooking project I wanted to make something that holds a special place in my heart, and stomach. While growing up, my mom had to feed my twin brother and I along with my older sister all by herself. She worked as a kindergarten teacher for twenty years and was always busy with lesson plans and making sure she did the best she could at her job and so she didn't always have time to make big elaborate meals. What my mother became a professional at during her childhood was making simple, but large, quantities of food for her seven brothers and sisters taste like gourmet meals. The tuna salad I made was not her original recipe that she made my my brother, sister, and I but was pretty close with a few alterations. I love tuna salad and nearly anything with a fishy taste but then again I love nearly all food and am one of the most adventurous eaters I know =]. I feel like I followed in her true spirit with this recipe because I was able to improvise with what ingredients I had at my disposal and produced a meal that was not only tasty, but could be re-eaten the next day, and the next day, and the next day.....
