I wanted pure unadulterated simple comfort for lunches this week. Of course, I did not want quite all the calories that usually come along with this, or low protein macros. So... update, go!
This makes 6 servings, at 37 grams of protein, 55 of carbs, and 13 of fat... just under 500 calories. Pretty much a pretty perfect lunch.
14 oz of elbow noodles (ie, a box w one serving used already)
24oz (6 cans) of tuna
6 eggs
3 cups of chopped celery
12tbl olive oil mayo (lighter then the standard but no strange ingredients/aftertaste of low fat)
salt, pepper, celery salt, etc to taste
Put the eggs into a pot and fill with water, set on the stove to boil. When it starts boiling, add the noodles and time them according to the package directions. The eggs should be done at the same time this way. Drain/rince pasta/eggs.
Open alllllll the tunas and put one can's worth into each container for your mealprep, add half a cup of chopped celery and 2 tbl mayo to each. Shell the eggs and cut one of them into each container. Season to taste with salt/pepper/etc. Add an equal amount of (now hopefully cool) pasta to each one, and stir.
This, nicely, makes 1 extra serving beyond your 5 lunches so that you can have it for lunch now to make sure it's not poison.
