Tuna Salsa Salad

(Suitable for all Phases of SB)

Serves 1

1 can of Tuna
1 tbsp mayo (FF, if preferred)
3 cherry tomatoes
½ small avocado
1 Spring Onion (scallion)
Lettuce Leaves – romaine, rocket (arugula), baby spinach and lambs leaves are especially nice to use for this


Drain the liquid from tuna, place in a bowl and mash with a fork. Add the mayonnaise and blend well. Cut the cherry tomatoes into quarters, cut the avocado into small chunks, and chop the spring onion into small pieces. Add to the tuna mixture and mix well.

Arrange the lettuce leaves on a plate and pile the tuna mixture on top. Sprinkle some parmesan shavings over the top if desired (optional).

Demi, I think it is a great idea to have a recipe section that is strictly South Beach. I printed out the Coconut chicken recipe right away just in case someone decides to move this and I can't find it again. I hope they leave it in.

This is great Demi....and if we can get one of the mods to pin it up for us, then we'd have a much easier way of getting to it.

Thanks!!

I'm going to bring over my recipes for turkey or chicken chili and mock mashed cauliflower.

Great thread idea! So many recipes are suitable for Atkins but not really for SB. I'll be back later to post.

P.S. I second the request for a sticky.

Default Tuscan Grilled Steak

This recipe was recently featured in the South Beach Newsletter (17 June)


Tuscan Grilled Steak

(Suitable for all Phases)

Serves 4 - 6

3 large cloves garlic, crushed
2 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 flank steak, about 2 pounds
Salt and pepper
4 oz. (about 6 cups) arugula (rocket)


In a small bowl, mash garlic and oil until a paste forms (you may also do this in the food processor). Pat steak dry with paper towel, then sprinkle with salt and pepper. Rub garlic paste over both sides of steak. Let sit for 30 minutes.

Preheat grill to high heat. Grill steak 5 to 7 minutes, until medium-rare. To check, cut into meat with a knife and remove when meat is slightly less done than you want it to be. Transfer to cutting board; cover loosely with foil and let rest 10 minutes. Slice very thin, against the grain and at a slight angle.

Arrange arugula on platter. Top with steak slices. Drizzle with any accumulated platter juices. Serve immediately.

Default Yoghurt-spiced chicken breast

This is a link to a fabulous chicken recipe that I have made a couple of times. It's very good cold too.

Apart from the sugar in the relish, I think it is definitely suitable for all of us Sbers

Enjoy
