A classic for many nationalities: the tuna paste sandwich. Now well compatible with low-carb choices. Shal we?

The bread is freshly baked. Who doesn't love freshly baked bread?! This is done in 10 minutes, in the skillet. People still say that in the KETO diet there are too many restrictions. Nevertheless, with sesame and oregano seeds there is no lack of flavor! The tuna paste?! It's made of half avocado and a whole can of tuna.

It was so good that I also made one for my lunch. And for Tiago, I made one with fried egg and cheese.The proof is in the pudding, in this case in the photos. Here we go:

OK google play Warhaus


Tuna paste sandwitch


Ingredients

For the bread:

  • 2 eggs

  • 2 tablespoons of almond flour

  • 1 teaspoon of butter

  • half a teaspoon of baking powder

  • salt

  • chili

  • Oregano

  • 2 slices of old cheese

For the Tuna Paté:

  • 1 can of tuna in olive oil or water, never in oil

  • half avocado (large) or one (small)

Preparation


For the bread:

  1. Place a non-stick pan to heat (if necessary grease with butter)

  2. In a bowl mix the eggs, whole, almond flour, butter, salt and pepper.

  3. When everything is mixed, a homogeneous and dense mixture should be obtained. Add half a teaspoon of yeast and mix

  4. Line the pan, already hot, with the sesame seeds. Place the dough on the pan and spread it out carefully.

  5. The batter should cover the entire pan. With medium heat, cover the pan and cook for 3 to 4 minutes.

  6. Check that after this time, the base of the dough is already peeling off the pan and the top is dry so that it can be turned over. If it is still necessary, heat it up to 2 minutes at most.

  7. Turn the bread and now decorate with slices of cheese and oregano to taste

  8. Recover and remove when the bread peels off again at the base

  9. The cheese however softened and all the bread grew in volume.

  10. Remove and let cool



The bread cut in half

For the tuna paté:


  1. Cut the avocado and crush it with a fork. Seasoning with salt, pepper and lemon

  2. Now add the drained tuna.

  3. Wrap everything well and rectify the seasonings


Sandwich assembly:

  1. With the bread already warm, make a cut to open the bread in the shape of a sandwich, keeping the part that has cheese facing up

  2. Place the paté generously on half the bread without cheese

  3. Put the half that has the cheese on top and that's it!

  4. You can add lettuce or other vegetables...

It will go equally well with boiled eggs or shrimp.
