• Make a bundle with the cheesecloth and the pickling spices, placing pickling spices in a square of cheesecloth and tying it off with cotton string. Mix water, vinegar, ketchup, sugar, and onion powder in a large crock pot (the one I use is a 6-quart model). Add the bundle of pickling spices.

• Remove spice bundle and throw away. Do not discard the juices nor turn off the crockpot. Take meat out and allow to cool.
• Add 12 crumbled ginger snaps to juices that remain in the crockpot and allow to thicken.
• Slice the meat and return to sauce in the crockpot.

• Combine eggs, salt, and vanilla, beating until fluffy with a wisk.
• add liquid coffee whitener to cooled milk and wisk into egg mixture.
• Pour over bun cube mixture and gently press cubes into liquid.

NOT YOUR GRANDMOTHER'S TUNA CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Spray a large pan (12 inch, if you have one) with cooking spray and heat at med-high.
• Add butter and evenly distribute it throughout the pan.
• Place each piece of tuna flat on the pan and let cook for about 3 minutes per side (slightly longer if not fully thawed).
• When tuna is finished, place on a plate and set aside.
• Add the other tablespoon of butter and add the onion. Sauté until clear to golden.
• Add artichokes to the pan and cook for about 5 minutes, or until slightly tender. Be sure to stir often.
• Next is where you would add capers to your liking. If you do not like capers, it is a trivial part to the dish that could be omitted to the cook's taste.
• Add vegetable broth and lower heat to medium. Let simmer until broth has gone down slightly (about 5 minutes).
• Next add the tuna back into the pan and add the spices, being sure to cover both sides of the tuna.
• Add the heavy cream substitute and let simmer for another 5 minutes, or until the liquid evaporates a little and leaves a thick cream.
• Serve alone or over pasta cooked in 5 parts water and 1 part vegetable broth.
