gravityizsexy 0 #1 September 23, 2004 I've been living on tuna to save for airtime... anyone know some cool recipes for sandwhiches?... or dressing to put on sandwhiches?... anything?.. tuna and ranch with potato bread is slowly making me nausceous... I got some jalepenos for the sandwhiches , but I figure that'll only last for 1-2 days or so... -Tony "'Someday is not a day in my week'" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Girlfalldown 0 #4 September 23, 2004 Top Ramen. It's cheaper than tuna. -------------- (Do not, I repeat DO NOT, take my posts seriously.) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bolas 5 #5 September 23, 2004 I've heard the cheapest food to live off of is eggs. A dozen eggs can last you a week and you get the protein you need. Mac N Cheese plus tuna: Tuna Casserole. Stupidity if left untreated is self-correcting If ya can't be good, look good, if that fails, make 'em laugh. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gravityizsexy 0 #7 September 23, 2004 that's what I've been eating... it does suck... but better than ramen noodles... I splurged yesterday and got 2 jr. double bacons at wendy's but that was just to get my head out of the "fine sandwhiches" .... the jalapenos was just me attempting to be creative... hrmmm.... I'm hungry.... "'Someday is not a day in my week'" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gravityizsexy 0 #8 September 23, 2004 ramen is alright I guess....... but I already bought the tuna for the week. but if it becomes unbearable ramen is next... Sounds like a gourmet weekend at my place... damn.... budgeting sucks! "'Someday is not a day in my week'" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wmw999 2,589 #9 September 23, 2004 1 box mac-and-cheese 1 can tuna 1 C frozen peas Make mac-and-cheese add drained tuna and peas cook until peas are thawed Presto -- instant tuna casserole, and it tastes just fine as the inevitable leftovers.

I tried it for several months and didn't gain any mass quicker than just breakin down and going to the gro. store and making paper sack lunches right after I eat b-fast (I make two in case I get really hungry). Check out what the big gro store chains got... I can buy those big microwaveable beef and chicken fajita packs at HEB. You can get some tortillas and make enough fajita wraps with them ahead of time. Stick em in your fridge to last a while (3 days max). Just gotta zap them for 10 seconds or eat them cold (the soft thin tortillas work well for that). ____________________________________________________________ I'm RICK JAMES! Fo shizzle.

Wendy W. That stuff is good, too Wendy! Also if you have a lot of saltine crackers you can crush them up on the side, then just cook the noodles by themselves, mix the peas in and layer the cracker mix on top in a pyrex dish then bake in an oven (bake til brown). I sometimes put Tony Cashiere spice up in there to give it some kick... makes for good eatin' If that fails, there's Taco Bell ____________________________________________________________ I'm RICK JAMES!

rickjump1 0 #21 September 23, 2004 Make whole wheat toast first. Put tuna on the toast with a little Louisiana Hot Sauce and cover with one slice of cheese. Zap everything in the microwave until the cheese melts. Cool and eat. Sounds terrible, but it is good.Do your part for global warming: ban beans and hold all popcorn farts.

christoofar 0 #25 September 23, 2004 If you can spare change for provolone cheese... it tastes good when melted on toast and the tuna is used as a spread. You can also throw in chopped boiled eggs too to give it a protein kick. Although if you haven't consumed protein before in one sitting... you gonna be busy in your bathroom for a while. ____________________________________________________________ I'm RICK JAMES!
