Snack: Tuna and Cheese Biscuit

Potato chips and "junk food" often come to mind when one thinks of Snacks. Low Salt High Fibre Biscuits are perfect for those snack cravings or just when you don't want to fill yourself up! (:


Tuna Spread:
1 can Tuna in Water (drained)
1 1/2 tbsp Mayonnaise
Lemon Juice to taste

Drain tuna solids of brine. To reduce sodium content even more, soak meat in distilled water for a few minutes and drain well. Make sure meat is dry,
or else it becomes soggy. Add Mayonnaise and Lemon Juice (don't put too much at a time!), and use a fork to mix it well. Spread on biscuit or toast.

Tip: Low sodium canned tuna in water is locally available; some brands I found are Bumblebee and TC Boy. You can also use low-fat mayonnaise instead.

I melted 1/2 a piece of Hokkaido Cheese on a biscuit for some variation. Another favourite is Swiss Emmental, especially since several brands have significantly lower sodium than regular cheeses. Try to limit the cheese to not more than 1 serving if you are on a low phosphate diet. :(
