Easy Peasy Tuna Cakes
Serves 2
1 five ounce can of tuna (I used Trader Joe's no-salt-added variety)
1/4 cup panko bread crumbs
2 egg whites (or one egg)
1 cup baby spinach
2 tbsp spicy brown mustard
2 tbsp ground flax meal
2 tbsp dried basil
1 tbsp white wine
Drain the tuna. Wilt the spinach. Set aside half of the bread crumbs.
Combine all ingredients (except the bread crumbs you set aside) in a bowl until thoroughly mixed. Form into 4 equally-sized patties and lightly coat each side of the patties with remaining bread crumbs. (Use more if necessary.)
In a pan lightly coated with cooking spray, brown cakes 4-ish minutes on each side or until golden over medium-high heat.
Oh, yes. Totally nom-nom-nom-worthy!

Mmm, I never thought of adding spinach to tuna cakes, which is strange since I LOVE spinach! I'll definitely try that next time :) They look delicious in the pics!

ReplyDeleteI agree it is really easy. I mix my canned tuna with egg, plus spices, then make tuna cakes...easy and tasty indeed. Likewise for salmon :)
