I made my own version of this meal. Instead of the egg, I used light mayo (about 2tbsp for the can), 1/4 c shredded 2% cheddar cheese, finely ground the tuna, added onion, celery, onion powder, garlic powder, & dill. Smashed into two patties and put it in the pan. DELICIOUS!!!!!!!! I'm having this again!

I like these, so good I make something simular to this except I like to use 1/4 cup Egg substitute in stead of egg, 1/2 tsp garlic powder, 1/2 tsp dill pickle relish and a 1/2 tsp dijon mustard; omit the onion.

I use diced green onions in my salmon patties for color and taste, I will try that when I make these. I did notice the serving size is 1 and since it makes 6 patties, I doubt I could eat all 6 right? Maybe 3.

Need more information: what size is the can? How much is a serving or how many servings does it make? Anyways, tastes good, made it up with a bit of lemon pepper. Will make again.

I really try to eliminate carbs as much as possible from dinner and this was a perfect appetizer for me and my husband to share. I doubled the recipe so I could have it again for lunch tomorrow but used 1 large egg along with the egg white only from another egg for 2 cans of tuna and texture was perfect.

i love this recipe because it is high in protein. however it is a little bland...like to add chopped red bell pepper, extra spice, and douce it with lemon juice and tapatio before serving...yum!

My mom used to make these when I was growing up. We add corn flakes to it to make it go farther.
