Tuna Burgers (pg. 112): Flavorful version of a basic.
K RATING: 6/7; good stuff abounds in John's tuna bruger recipe: fresh garlic, cilantro, omega-3 eggs, and olive oil. But what really packs a nutritional punch (besides the incredible 63 grams of protein in one 475 kcal serving!) is the addition of flax meal. I grind mine up fresh from whole seeds - no need to worry about spoilage then - and get 3.2 grams of Omega 3's per serving.
Why the rating of only 6/7? It's a staple recipe with the exception of the flax seed, and that's hard to improve on. Plus, for some reason, I can never get the damn things to cook and stay together as one nicely formed patty. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Very thoughtful review once again Kaiser. One trick you might try to keep the burgers together is to add an extra egg white, and decrease the heat for a longer cooking time (make sure those eggs in the matrix get cooked, which serves as the glue, so to speak).
