Alin, I always mix tuna with non-fat myo, what a difference.

I have made them similar in the past. I used Italian seasoned bread crumbs though If you fry them in olive oil they kind of taste like a crab cake.

No not really it's more like salmon to me. also if you use mustard it takes the tuna out of it to.

Use lemon to get rid of the fishy taste.

PEANUT BUTTER!!!!!!


Or you could buy the low carb bread (think its 3-4 grams per slice) and pull that apart after you toast it.

VERY TASTEY! I DEFINETLY WILL MAKE THESE AGAIN.

I buy low sodium tuna and make these every week. I put in some Olive Oil and that "healthy" mayo type stuff with onions and sugar free sweet pickles. I make a lot and keep them for "snacks". Mine hold together ok without the carb filler.

These are actually one of my favorite foods, and I measured them out one time to meet my macro ratios for Phil. I actually eat them cold or hot. I have occasionally added a little Mrs. Dash for seasoning and a little lemon pepper as well.

 

[GettinBigR]

The big or little cans of tuna, Im guessin the big 12oz cans??

 

[Mini Monster]

I use the 5oz cans that come in the four packs .

My wife has made something like this for years.

She uses whole eggs, bread crumbs, chopped celery and onions. Sticks together and does not have that distinct tuna taste. i usually eat them like nuggets and dip them in ketchup or mayo.
