Tuna Pate
Hi All
Sorry, another post from me! But my most favourite lunchtime treat is Tuna Pate and a fresh crusty roll from M&S. I know we can't have pate, but surely fish pate, tuna especially, would be fine wouldn't it? Silly me didn't check the ingredients though...

My midwife said no pate to me - even veg pate! apparently its due to the way its made, not just the contents - do you have the nhs handbook - its got all about it in there!
*Joo goes off to sulk in a corner and adds tuna pate to her list of foods to eat when the baby is out*
LOL, I don't mind really, I'd rather be safe, but its a shame nonetheless!

Tuna pate
Serves 4
Ingredients:
* 1x198g(7oz) can tuna in brine, drained
* Juice of 1.2 lemons
* Large sprig parsley
* 6 leaves fresh chives
* 2 drops Tabasco
* 3 table spoons of fromage frais (low fat soft cheese)
* Salt and pepper
* Parsley to garnish
Put the tuna, lemon juice, herbs and Tabasco into the food processor, blend until smooth.
Remove the lid; add the fromage frais and salt and pepper, process again for about 6 turns until well mixed.
Spoon the pate into a serving dish, garnish with parsley and serve. Then eat is straight away!
It is totally delicious and cheaper than buying. x
I used to make my own Mackerel pate, with creme fraiche and lemon juice, S&P - its delicious!

Although recently I have totally gone off spicy foods - I used to be a real curry addict but it's all bland wholemeal pittas for me these days. Have stopped eating like a builder (lots of tea, crisps and curries) and started eating like a supermodel.
Just need to grow about a foot now....
