This recipe came from a "Microwave speed meals" booklet. I have to admit I never microwaved it. I serve it over egg noodles. My daughter and her friends (teens) love this.

BAKED TUNA BALLS



Baked Tuna Balls image

These tuna balls are very tasty, they can be made into 10-12 larger balls, or 30-40 smaller cocktail size balls (served with a cocktail picks). If you are one of those people (like myself) that just have to add garlic to everything, no matter what it is, then fresh minced garlic in any amount may be added to these if desired. This recipe can easily be doubled, I usually do if I am making, them into larger balls, for a snack or a main meal.
