List of Ingredients
1/4 C finely chopped celery
3 Tbs butter or margarine
1/4 tsp salt
3 Tbs all-purpose flour
1/4 tsp paprika, (optional...I leave this out)
3/4 C milk
1 (6 oz) can of tuna
2 C bread crumbs
2 Tbs chopped green onions
Recipe
For sauce, in a saucepan cook celery in 3 Tbs of the butter till tender. Stir in flour, paprika, (if using paprika,) and 1/4 tsp salt.
Stir in milk. Cook and stir until thickened and bubbly.
Cool slightly. Flake tuna. Mix into sauce with bread crumbs and onion.
Form into eight 2 1/2-inch patties and place on lightly greased cookie sheet.
Place a slice of your favorite cheese...we use Monterey Jack...on each patty and bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes or until cheese is melted and slightly browned.
The recipe says that it makes 4 servings, however, I double the recipe and feed a family of 4 their full with a couple left over!
