Homeade Tuna Salad Sandwich<\/p>\n

Ingredients purchased from Walmart<\/p>\n

Subway Tuna Sandwich footlong as of 9\/24\/2016 is $6.95<\/p>\n

Cheese Bread 4 rolls $3.00
\nEach roll is approx 6 inches x 2 equiv of footlong = $1.50<\/p>\n

Helmann’s mayonnaise 15 oz jar $2.98<\/p>\n

Great Value mild cheddar slices\t$2.22<\/p>\n

Mushrooms $1.38<\/p>\n

Celery heart $2.18<\/p>\n

Great Value Light Chunk Tuna 4-pack, 5 oz each,\t$2.96<\/p>\n

Cucumber $0.58<\/p>\n

Tomato x 3 = $1.88
\n So one tomato = approx $0.63<\/p>\n

Red Onion $0.81<\/p>\n

So approx 20 oz of tuna including all ingredients looks to serve about 5 six-inch equiv sandwiches.<\/p>\n

Sub-total $17.49<\/p>\n

$17.49 \/ 5 = $3.49 per six inch<\/p>\n

$3.49 * 2 = $7 footlong WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY<\/p>\n

Time wasted grocery shopping and prepping about 1 to 2 hours.<\/p>\n

Subway sandwich is only 5 minute drive and would include olives, spinach, vinegrette, pickled peppers, provolone and american cheese, 5 herb toasted bun, and can be made in less than 15 minutes<\/p>\n

However, making it yourself allows you to add as much tuna per sandwich as want. In this case, I put almost same amount that would go into a Subway footlong into a 6-inch cheese bread roll. So maybe there’s more value in that.<\/p>\n

Then again, as for time management, now I have enough pre-made tuna salad I can eat for next few days without having to drive to Subway. It evens out time and money.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
