Coming up with meals to feed your family can often be a daunting task. You don’t want to serve the same boring thing at home which your family will just ignore, you have to create interesting dynamic meals that will excite you and the family. The problem is that coming up with gourmet meals can often mean expensive. So what can you do?

Today, we’ll be taking a look at some gourmet meal ideas for your home that you can do yourself that are not only simple to do but inexpensive as well compared to actually going to a restaurant. Let’s take at some of these meals, shall we?

Salad Niçoise

This is a classic French dish that is usually a hit with the crowd. It’s usually made with canned tuna, lettuce, green beans, anchovies, eggs, and olives, but you can change up the ingredients to suit your preferences. To make it your own, add radishes, red bell peppers, avocados, maize, or artichoke hearts. Salad niçoise has something for everyone, making it a fantastic dish for a potluck or dinner party. The ingredients are pretty easy to get apart from the anchovies, which you can replace with sardines, tuyo, or you can use San Marino Tuna Flakes in Aglio Olio Sauce that already comes with tuna and capers. The best part is you don’t need to provide a salad dressing as the Aglio Olio sauce is the perfect dressing for this salad. This is not only a special gourmet meal that’s easy to prepare but it’s healthy too.

Tuna Casserole

Tuna casserole is unmistakably a comfort food from the United States and not something you would find here in the Philippines which makes it the perfect meal to change up your home menu. Traditional tuna casseroles have a lot of fat and calories because they’re cooked with creamy canned soup, heavy cream, and butter. This dish includes gluten-free chicken broth and noodles, low-fat milk, and extra-virgin olive oil to lighten it up. Add some fresh herbs, parmesan cheese, or mushrooms to spice it up. You can also ditch the extra-virgin olive oil with the sauce that comes with San Marino Tuna Flakes in Aglio Olio Sauce as it’s the perfect blend of sauce and oil that works incredibly well with any casserole. You or your family is definitely going to enjoy this new take on a tuna dish.

Tuna Pasta

Now, let’s face it, most people prefer eating rice over pasta mainly because they think it’s harder to make pasta and are often overwhelmed with the idea. However, pasta can be very simple. You simply need to boil the pasta in hot water until it becomes soft and firm, then strain the water, and you are done. You just then need to add the sauce and maybe some herbs like basil and some grated cheese and you have the perfect pasta dish. You don’t even have to cook the sauce as San Marino has you covered. San Marino Tuna Flakes in Aglio Olio Sauce and San Marino Tuna Flakes in Marinara Sauce are the perfect sauces to use with any pasta. Looking for a more oily rich texture then go with the Aglio Olio Sauce but if you want that tomato red sauce then you go with the Marinara sauce. Either way, top them on your pasta (whether it be regular spaghetti or fancier ones like Penne) and then mix, and voila you have a gourmet pasta dish in just a matter of minutes.

Whatever your tastes are, San Marino Tuna Flakes in Aglio Olio Sauce and in Marinara Sauce are great in making any meal into a gourmet meal and are sure to work whether you are a young professional looking for something different and inexpensive or a housewife looking to spice up their home cooking.
