tangy tuna patties image

i came up with this recipe as a healthy snack that is very tasty and portable. the patties freeze well and reheat quickly in the microwave, so i often make extra batches to freeze. you can eat them in a sandwich, or just as is, with your fingers!

Time 20m

Yield 9 patties

Number Of Ingredients 6

12 ounces tuna, water packed,drained
2 eggs or 2 egg substitute
3 tablespoons heinz-style chili sauce
1 tablespoon prepared horseradish
1 -2 cup oatmeal (regular will work better than 'quick oats')
ground pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Combine all ingredients EXCEPT OATMEAL in a large bowl, and mix well.
  • Mix in 1/4 cup oatmeal at a time, until mixture is a good texture to form into patties.
  • It should still be moist, but not drippy.
  • If you are not in a hurry, put the bowl in the refrigerator for 10 minutes to make the mixture easier to form into patties.
  • Otherwise, go directly to next step.
  • Cover broiler pan with foil and coat with cooking spray.
  • Form mixture into a ball with your hands, and then flatten into a pattie and put on broiler pan.
  • You can make whatever size you prefer, but make sure they are not very thick, or else the outside will burn before the inside is cooked.
  • I usually end up with 9 patties per batch.
  • Put pan in broiler and broil for about 8 minutes, or until top starts to brown.
  • Take out the pan, flip the patties, and cook another 6 minutes or so, until other side browns.
  • Remove from broiler and eat!
