Spicy Tuna Pad Thai
Are you thinking of ordering Pad Thai tonight? Try cutting more than half the calories and making it yourself. Instead of using traditional chicken breast weighed down with fatty grease, try using flavoured tuna. For a bit of flair, add chopped peanuts, bean sprouts and an easy-to-make sauce using coconut milk to cut calories without sacrificing taste.
