Recipe Introduction
This is a quick and easy dinner for those who like fish. We are HUGE fish eaters... although my kids are starting to rebel.

Prep time: approx. 10 minutes
Cooking time: approx. 15 minutes
3 regular size cans of tuna
2 eggs PER can of tuna
1 small to medium onion, chopped or 3 - 5 green onions, chopped
bread crumbs, just enough to help hold the patties together but not enough to make them dry
salt and pepper to taste
oil
Put oil in a pan over a medium flame. While oil is heating, combine all ingredients in a bowl. when oil is ready, spoon in a large rounded spoonful into the pan. I use a serving size spoon. flatten to desired thickness and brown on both sides. Lay on paper towel to drain excess oil. Serve. Serves 5
We like to have this dish with some fresh steamed rice and corn. I like mayonnaise with my fish. Eddie likes lemon. Chris like my homemade Thousand Island Dressing*.
Homemade Thousand Island Dressing. Equal parts mayo and ketchup. mix mayo first to make it creamy, then add the ketchup, 1 large tsp. pickle relish mix and use on just about anything! Burgers, steak, fish, salads etc!

*How to test oil to see if it's ready.
Some people put a drop of water in the pan. Having children who like to cook, here is a safer way. Take the handle end of a wooden spoon and dip it in the oil till it's touching the pan. If bubbles come up the sides, the oil is ready to fry with.
Any patties left over can be put in a baggie and eaten for lunch the next day. One patty in between 2 pieces of bread with your favorite condiments makes for a VERY tasty tuna sandwich.
