Tuna Cakes

(Serves 6-8)

This is a great recipe, even if you aren’t crazy about canned tuna. If you add some steamed sweet peas and macaroni and cheese as sides, this makes for a great meal in a snap.

Ingredients

3 cans all white tuna, drained
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1½ cups of seasoned croutons**
Butter

Put the croutons in a gallon-size baggie, pressing out the air as you seal it. Use a rolling pin to finely crush the croutons, and then place them in a medium bowl. Add the tuna and eggs and mix well, mashing everything with a fork to break up the tuna.

Heat a skillet (I use cast iron) on medium heat. Once warm, use a stick of butter to coat the surface. With your hands, form tuna mixture into small patties and fry for approximately 3 minutes on each side (or until golden brown).

Yum!


**I use Rothbury Farms brand of cheese garlic croutons.
