Loaded Tuna Pasta Salad With Peas And Cheddar

Loaded Tuna Pasta Salad With Peas And Cheddar

American · 25 min · fish · pescatarian, high-protein

  • 12 oz rotini or other short pasta
  • 3 (5 oz) cans canned tuna in water, drained
  • 3/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 1/2 cups frozen peas
  • 5 oz sharp cheddar, cut in small cubes

  • 2 tbsp lemon juice

  1. Boil the pasta in heavily salted water until just past al dente, about a minute longer than the box says, since cold pasta firms up.
  2. Drop the frozen peas into the pot for the last 60 seconds, then drain everything together and rinse under cold water until the pasta is cool to the touch.
  3. Whisk the mayonnaise, lemon juice, Dijon, salt and pepper in a large bowl until smooth and pourable.

London Broil with Garlic Marinade

London Broil with Garlic Marinade

American · 100 min · dairy-free, keto, low-carb, high-protein

Ingredients & steps ↓
  • 2.5 lb top round steak, 1.5 inches thick
  • 1/3 cup soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 3 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 6 garlic cloves
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 2 sprigs fresh rosemary
  • 2 tsp coarse black pepper
  1. Whisk the soy, oil, balsamic, Worcestershire, Dijon, grated garlic, stripped rosemary and pepper. Hold back the salt — the soy carries plenty for a marinade this concentrated.
  2. Score the steak in a shallow diamond pattern on both sides, put it in a bag with the marinade and refrigerate at least 1 hour and up to 8. Longer than 12 hours and the acid turns the surface mealy.
  3. Take the steak out 45 minutes before cooking. Scrape the marinade off and pat the surface dry — anything wet will steam under the broiler instead of browning. Discard the used marinade.
  4. Set an oven rack 4 inches below the element and preheat the broiler on high for 10 minutes with a cast-iron skillet or heavy sheet pan under it.
  5. Broil 6 to 7 minutes, flip, and broil 5 to 7 minutes more. Pull at 125F for medium-rare — top round is lean and anything past 140F is genuinely tough, not merely well done.
  6. Rest a full 15 minutes, then slice as thinly as you possibly can, holding the knife at a 45-degree angle across the grain. Thin slicing is the entire technique of this cut.
  7. For the week, portion the slices with their juices into containers; they hold their texture better under a spoonful of the resting liquid.

Make-Ahead Turkey Stock Gravy

Make-Ahead Turkey Stock Gravy

American · 200 min · turkey · keto, low-carb

Ingredients & steps ↓
  • 3 lb turkey wings
  • 2 yellow onions, quartered
  • 2 carrots, chunked
  • 3 celery stalks, chunked
  • 6 garlic cloves, smashed
  • 6 sprigs fresh thyme
  • 4 sprigs fresh sage
  • 1 tsp black peppercorns
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 6 cups low-sodium chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup apple cider
  • 6 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 6 tbsp all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp soy sauce
  1. Heat the oven to 425F. Spread the turkey wings, onions, carrots, celery, and garlic on a large sheet pan and roast 45 minutes, until the wings are deeply browned — that color is the whole flavor base.
  2. Scrape everything into a big pot, including the browned bits (loosen them with a splash of hot water). Add the broth, 4 cups water, the apple cider, thyme, sage, peppercorns, and bay leaves.
  3. Bring to a bare simmer and hold it there, uncovered, 2 hours. Skim the foam once early on. You want about 6 cups of rich sage-and-peppercorn stock; top up with water if it drops below that.
  4. Strain the stock and discard the solids. Skim the fat from the surface (a ladle or a fat separator both work).
  5. In the same pot, melt the butter over medium heat and let it cook until the milk solids turn toasty brown and it smells nutty, about 3 minutes. Whisk in the flour and cook 2 minutes more.
  6. Whisk in the hot stock in three additions, letting each smooth out before the next. Simmer 8 to 10 minutes until it coats a spoon.
  7. Stir in the soy sauce — the quiet umami move nobody will spot — and season with salt and pepper. Cool completely, then refrigerate or freeze.
  8. Thanksgiving day: reheat gently, whisking, and finish with the strained drippings from your roast turkey. Thin with stock or water to your favorite pour.

  • 2 tsp vegetable oil
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  1. Lay the bacon in a cold skillet and cook over medium 10 minutes, turning once, until deep brown and stiff. Drain on paper towels and pour off all but 1 tbsp of fat.
  2. Whisk the pancake mix with the milk and 2 of the eggs until just combined; lumps are fine and overmixing makes the stack tough. Rest 5 minutes.
  3. Heat a griddle over medium and film it with butter. Ladle 1/3-cup rounds and cook until bubbles break across the surface and the edges look dry, about 2 minutes.
  4. Flip and cook 90 seconds more until the second side springs back when pressed. Hold the pancakes on a sheet pan in a low oven.
  5. Crumble half the bacon and scatter it over each pancake right after ladling the next batches so it bakes into the surface.
  6. Wipe the skillet, add the oil, and fry the remaining 4 eggs over medium-low until the whites are opaque and the yolks still jiggle, about 3 minutes.
  7. Stack the pancakes, top each with a fried egg and the remaining bacon, and pour the maple syrup over the top.

Meatball Parmigiana Subs

Meatball Parmigiana Subs

Italian · 60 min · beef · high-protein

Ingredients & steps ↓
  • 1 lb ground beef, 80% lean
  • 1/2 lb ground pork
  • 3/4 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 cup whole milk
  • 1 egg
  • 3/4 cup grated Pecorino Romano
  • 5 garlic cloves
  • 1/2 bunch fresh parsley
  • 28 oz can crushed tomatoes
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 4 sub rolls
  • 8 slices sliced provolone
  • 6 oz shredded mozzarella
  • 1/4 bunch fresh basil
  1. Soak the breadcrumbs in the milk 5 minutes until pasty. Mix them with the beef, pork, egg, half the Pecorino, three grated garlic cloves, the chopped parsley, 1.5 tsp salt and plenty of pepper — with your hands, and only until it comes together. Overworked mince makes a bouncy meatball.
  2. Roll 16 meatballs about 1.5 inches across and brown them in the oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high, in two batches, 5 minutes a batch, turning to color most sides.
  3. Add the remaining sliced garlic and the oregano to the pot for 1 minute, then the tomatoes and 1 tsp salt. Return the meatballs, cover partly, and simmer 25 minutes until they read 160F in the center and the sauce has thickened.
  4. Heat the oven to 400F. Split the rolls without cutting all the way through, lay them open on a sheet pan, and toast 4 minutes so the bread can stand up to the sauce.
  5. Line each roll with provolone, spoon in four meatballs and sauce, and cover with mozzarella and the remaining Pecorino.
  6. Bake 8 to 10 minutes until the cheese is melted and browning at the edges. Tear basil over and serve with the extra sauce for dipping.
