Number Of Ingredients 8

35 ounces canned tuna, drained (see note)
1 bunch scallion, thinly sliced
1 red bell pepper, diced
2 eggs, beaten
8 whole wheat hamburger buns
1/2 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons garlic
1 tablespoon lemon juice

Steps:

  • Sautee garlic in pan until brown.
  • Combine garlic, lemon juice and mayonnaise.
  • Combine tuna, scallions, bell pepper and eggs in a bowl.
  • Separate tuna mixture into 8 patties.
  • Grill patties.
