Lunch not dinner but, following on from recent posts.

Went to Central and asked the g/f where she fancied for lunch. I wanted Japanese but, she won out with Sizzler.

Holiday prices so, 199 for the salad bar and a further 119 for a side order of sesame prawns. Including a couple of nom chompoo, total bill was just over 600 and I'm pigged out.

Place was heaving but, suprisingly, no other falang around. There were a couple of diminutive (Filipino??) nuns enjoying the spread.

Handy hint. My other half put some bacon bits and croutons from the salad bar in the tuna and parsley soup. Brothtastic!

Sometimes, when I'm just sorta hungry and really don't want to cook I will dump a can of Campbell's cream of mushroom soup in a pan along with 125 grams (4 oz.+/-) of drained canned tuna and 2/3 of a soup can of milk. Heat to almost a boil and stir to break up the tuna, add salt and pepper to taste and eat with saltines. I'll also have this occasionally after a dental appointment. I find it to be darn tasty but I've never added the parsley. Will try that next time. Soup is actually one of my favorite ways to eat canned tuna.

Yeah, give it a try. Drop-dead easy, just soup, milk, tuna, and seasoning to taste. All done in less than 10 minutes. Be sure to drain the tuna well. I prefer the oil-packed tuna in the soup but I'll also use the water-packed as well. I think, if well-drained, there isn't a huge difference in calories between the two. I really like the flavor of this creamy soup. A crusty roll would top it off nicely. One batch fills me up comfortably.

Come to think of it I've only had tuna with the Campbell's mushroom soup. It's so tasty I've never thought to make a broth version. The creaminess of the soup is one of the things I like best. I make a diced chicken soup similar to the video.
