Gadgets

We haven't talked gadgets lately. One of my favorites is this handy dandy squeezer/masher thing..... I use to use the lid from the tuna can for this step. It wasn't a safe thing to do and really didn't work well. I got mine at Bed, Bath and Beyond and love it. You can put some water on top and more or less rinse your tuna, if you so choose.

Another favorite is my Vidalia Chop Wizard.  It seems I have to chop an onion, bell pepper, celery, etc. daily.  Today I used it to chop an apple for the tuna.  I love the sweetness and crunch an apple adds.


This was my first time to try it for boiled eggs.  Voila, it worked perfectly.


My gadgets make life a little easier. ha......
If I could chop like they do on Food Network I probably would but I can't, so I turn to my chopper.

Makes a great tuna salad.  Everything is chopped to the same size.  You know that is a requirement/ha
Blogger is acting strange....imagine that.
I can't get below this picture to add more lines.
So.......have a good day, all.
I'm off to have a tuna sandwich with lettuce and tomato.

I don't have any gadgets. Not even a mixer. I just do everything by hand. Sometimes it would be nice to have everything chopped the same size -- like for homemade salsa. :) Hope your day is great. Tammy

I'm a gadget gal, too, Nanny! I just wish my kitchen was bigger so I could store more of them.
