Earth Day Waffled Tuna Taquitos

April 21, 2017 by Suzie the Foodie 6 Comments

Earth Day Tuna Taquitos

I hope you have a wonderful Earth Day this Saturday April 22nd! I wanted to honour our oceans in particular this year and say thanks for all the fish. In particular, the tuna. To do so I came up with a new take on the tuna melt. I got out my waffle maker and made tuna taquitos which are unbelievably delicious.

The Inspiration

Earth Day Tuna Taquitos

I want to thank Ocean Brands for sending me a package of goodies to celebrate our earth and sending me their Gold Seal sockeye salmon and Oceans Pole & Line tuna.  These products now carry the Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) label, demonstrating they are from a sustainably managed fishery. 

The Program

“MSC is an international non-profit that works with scientists, fisheries, seafood producers and brands around the world to advance sustainable fishing and to safeguard the health of our oceans. The blue MSC label on products guarantees they meet the most credible standard in the world.”

The Recipe

Earth Day Tuna Taquitos

I choose the GoldSeal Flaked Tuna to make the taquitos with. I added some minced pickles, olive oil mayo, salt and pepper.

I put a line of the tuna salad along the centre of a tortilla, topped it with chopped fresh chives and some thinly sliced Havarti.

I rolled it into a cylinder and then added it to my lightly greased hot waffle maker, like it was a panini press. I “waffled” the taquitos for one and a half minutes.

Happy Earth Day!

Wow! Better than I had even imagined. Nice! I hope I did our oceans proud honouring their bounty with this recipe. May we treat our planet responsibly and help our oceans continue to feed and thrive.

      You too Debra! It is amazing just how many things you can make with a waffle maker that isn’t waffles, LOL.

        Yes! I will have to see if my waffle stick maker can handle my wraps. If it does, I’ll snap a picture and send it to you. Also, I totally forgot about Earth Day. Thanks for the reminder.
