Tuna Patties

By Bailey1_

Ingredients

• 2 ounces drained tuna (water or olive oil-packed)
• 2 slices sprouted-grain bread, ground to crumbs in a food processor
• 2 large eggs
• 1/2 cup fresh cilantro, coarsely chopped, plus sprigs for garnish
• 2 tablespoons safflower mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
• 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• Salsa, to serve

Preparation

Step 1

In a large bowl, combine the tuna, breadcrumbs, eggs, chopped cilantro, mayonnaise, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Mix gently just until the ingredients hold together.

Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat, and add the olive oil. Pack the tuna mixture into a 1/3-cup measure to make 9 patties. Cook the tuna cakes until crisp and golden on both sides. Serve with salsa and cilantro.
