DANA CARPENDER’S TUNA MELT CASSEROLE




Source of Recipe


From her book, "500 Low Carb Recipes"


Recipe Introduction


Makes 3 servings
(I made it in the GT Express Machine but you can use an oven)




List of Ingredients




1 (6 oz.) can tuna, drained
1 cup shredded Cheddar Cheese
3 slices (1 1/2 oz.) processed American Cheese (I used 1/3 cup more of
shredded cheddar)
3 eggs
3 Tablespoons of ground flaxseed meal or 3 tablespoons of low-carb bake mix
(I used ground flaxseed meal)
1 teaspoon garlic powder (I just sprinkled some in and didn’t use that much)
1/2 teaspoon salt



Recipe



Combine all ingredients well and spoon 1/3 of the mixture into each side of
the GT Express machine (You’ll have to make that batch first and then pour
the rest of the mixture into just one side of the GT Express after the first
batch is done.) Cook for about 9 minutes.
Oven Directions:
Preheat oven to 400° F. and grease a 9” pie plate with 1 teaspoon oil.
In a large bowl, combine the tuna, cheeses, eggs, flaxseed meal, garlic, and
salt. Mix well.
Pour the tuna mixture into the prepared pie plate, pat down firmly, and bake
for approximately 30 minutes or until browned and bubbly.
Yield: 3 servings, each with 5 gr. Of carbs and 3 gr. Of fiber, for a total
of 2 gr. Of usable carbs and 38 grams of protein.
