This is a great change for fussy tuna eaters. Kids & grown-ups love them. You may want to make extra sauce which you'll find requests for. Also, grate extra cheese to microwave melt over muffins before adding sauce.

Time 30m

Yield 12 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cups cooked rice, cooled (any variety, sticky white rice holds together better)
1 (170 g) can tuna in water
1 cup cheddar cheese, grated
1 tablespoon parsley
1 tablespoon fresh onion, depending on taste (or more)
1 teaspoon seasoning salt
2 tablespoons milk
2 eggs
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon seasoning salt
1/2 teaspoon parsley
1/4 cup melted butter or 1/4 cup margarine

Steps:

  • Mix first eight ingredients together and lightly press into a very well greased muffin tin.
  • Bake at 375 F for 15 minutes. Tops should just start to brown & bubble. Note - baking time will vary with size of muffin tins.
  • Let cool about 5 minutes to allow for easier removal from pans then turn out onto individual serving dishes.
  • Combine sauce ingredients and drizzle over top of muffins.
