Tammie's Recipe Collection


Recipe Introduction

They can be eaten hot or cold and freeze beautifully. The amount of vegetables can be adjusted according to taste as well.

List of Ingredients

10 cans tuna in spring water ( rinsed thoroughly to remove the salt added) or fresh tuna flaked.
1 1/2 C. celery diced
1 1/2 C mushrooms diced
3/4 C. onion diced (I use green onions)
4-6 egg whites (slightly whipped)
1/4 -1/2 C. Oatmeal flour to thicken


Recipe

Mix all ingredients except for oatmeal into a large bowl, gradually add oatmeal until mixture begins to form a ball.. should pack a bit but is ok to fall apart as well.

Spray skillet with Pam or other no stick spray then allow the pan to heat just a bit. Form tuna mixture into patties or cakes then place in warm pan. Cook approximately 2-3 minutes on either side. May fall apart as the juice from the veggies tends to weaken the mold. Makes for a hearty way of spicing up the old familiar tuna.

Original poster's note: This makes for me @ 15 servings. instead of measuring out 2 oz portions though, I measure out 3 oz. because of the veggies.
