Megan and Melissa's Canned Protein Demo Reveals 3 Easy, Budget-Friendly Meals

Megan and Melissa recently hosted a Canned Protein Demo to showcase quick and easy meals. The session featured three dishes made with affordable, shelf-stable ingredients. Viewers could follow along live or access the recipes later online. The demo began with black bean and salmon tostadas. These were built on crisp corn tortillas, topped with canned salmon, sliced avocado, and seasoned black beans.

A Greek-style tuna salad was also prepared. The recipe combined canned tuna with grape tomatoes, fresh scallions, and crumbled feta cheese. The third dish was an orzo salad with a bold dressing. Whole wheat orzo was mixed with corn, halved cherry tomatoes, and black beans. The spicy buttermilk dressing included buttermilk, chopped cilantro, lime juice, and chili powder for a tangy kick. Links to the full recipes and a recording of the Facebook Live Cooking Class are available online.
