Faux Tuna Salad with Briny Tahini Mayo

                                         

How is it that I cook, photograph food and do dishes all day long and haven't managed a recent post on this food blog since May of last year?  Whaaat?  May?  Are you kidding me?  AND I just found a draft of a partially written entry about my infamously good BBQ sauce in the pergatory file.  On hold.  Until when, she asks?  Time to get a grip. Time to make a command decision.

Post or get out of the kitchen! And we know the latter ain't happening any time soon.  So, a bit of compromise is needed here.

Photos of food will start magically appearing more frequently on this blog. That shouldn't be too hard to do, considering my last post was in May!  Even without full recipes. That, my friend, is what keeps the posts from happening.  The time to write up a recipe, if it's a dish I have created, takes an entire morning.  I'm just that slow.  Many of the dishes I prepare are found in cookbooks, on the internet, or a combo of outside sources and my tweaking. If there is a link to go with the dish I've prepared then I'll add it here and not worry so much about originality.  It's food, not brain surgery!  And I'll give credit where credit is due.  Always.

Without further ado, here's a keeper.  The recipe is now handy in the pages of this food journal so I can make it again.  And again.  Thanks, Molly, for granting me permission to share. And for providing us foodie types who have healthy proclivities a safe place to review, rant, post and let our hair down. Here's to US!
