Tuna burgers

[Kevin T.]

I found these at some hard core lifting website, someplace like West side where there's a bunch of huge guys lifting huge weights, but I cant remember where. I put a bunch of the recipes in a word document. Anyway, I've made these a few times now and they're not half bad.

1 can tuna
1/4 cup bread crumbs, I use some italian kind
chopped celery or onion optional
1 egg

mix everything together, form into 2 pattys and cook in olive oil on medium in a frying pan for about 2-3 mins on each side, or until they turn a golden brown, or darker if thats how you roll.

I put them on a piece of WW toast with some light mayo and mustard. I think they're good and since they're not that bad, i figured I'd share. Of course, you could make some WW bread crumbs if you're a stickler for that stuff, but i'm 15, i dont care.

ehh i dont care about the bread crumbs. The italian seasoning gives it a nice flavor.

I just made some and used flax meal instead of breadcrumbs. Not sure if that is the best substitution, but it worked for me. Ended up with 14.5 fat, 8 carbs, 8 fiber, and 44 protein. It was a little bland, but a few spices, garlic, and onion could probably fix that; just wanted to try it plain, and I was to lazy to chop some garlic.

I make them with onion, celery, and chopped zucchini. No bread crumbs.

I make extras and keep them cold for adding to salads, too.

I sometimes use a mixture of tuna and salmon, too.
