lots of protien bar recipes in the cooking thread.

I looked again at the recipies.... I use Stevia for sweetner, I can't use Splenda myself... so the .5 cup I listed should be STEVIA, not Splenda.

For the tuna muffins (and the others too), do you have to use any baking powder to make them rise? I'm not much of a baker, but motivated by these recipes, I picked up a muffin tray yesterday at the grocery store.

nycgirl this is the recipe for a tarter sauce like topping that goes on the tuna muffins.
TARTAR SAUCE
1/4 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons dill pickle relish
1/8 teaspoon celery seed
Dash pepper
1/8 teaspoon dill (optional or use for garnish)

Mix all but the dill in a small bowl. Spoon about 1 tablespoon sauce over each Tuna Muffin.

*I'm sure you could use low fat mayo in place of the reg.*
If ya make em let me know if they are good!

Where was I when this was posted??

Anyway - try using FF mayo for the tartar sauce and maybe a small spoonful of Dijon Mustard and/or a dash of Worcestershire sauce....

Looks like the other ladies got you covered on the muffins.....

Trader Joes Wasabi Mayo is a thing of beauty in it's full fat force, used sparringly it will give your fish a kick. I'm a full blown addict, I use it on everything that has a mother and a face.

Yummy! My bf is bulking, which means I'm baking! He's careful about snacking throughout the day at work... I made the tuna and the PB&J for him. Here's about what I did for the PB & J (bad with exact measurements)

1 c. all nat. peanut butter
1 egg
1/3 cup splenda
1/3 cup strawberry protein powder
1 c. skim milk
1 c. oat flour
1/2 c. oatmeal
1 tbs baking powder
.5 c. strawberry polaner preserves, sugar free

Result was decent - a little more dry than I expected, but a good treat!

I made the tuna muffins today and they were delish! It really was a simple process. I should mention I've never baked much before and was inspired to buy a muffin tray only after seeing this thread.

I used liquid egg whites (from carton), fat free american cheese (if you're wondering, I don't think you need the cheese for this recipe and can eliminate it if you're avoiding dairy) and threw in curry powder instead of pepper & old bay seasoning. The muffins came out rather soft and next time, I may even dice up some chillis or hot peppers and throw them in there for a real savory muffin. Of course they are best when warm, so instead of baking 6 at a time, I'm going to make the mix and refrigerate it for a few days and just bake 1-2 at one shot.

Thanks to GetNFit & Caligirl for posting and modifying these recipes This is one portable convenient high protein/low cal & low carb food to haul around.
