Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons nonfat mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons creamy mustard-mayonnaise blend
  • 1 egg white
  • 2 (6 1/8-ounce) cans albacore tuna in water, drained and flaked
  • 1/2 cup dry breadcrumbs, divided
  • 1/4 cup chopped green onions
  • Vegetable cooking spray
  • 1/4 cup nonfat mayonnaise
  • 4 (1 1/2-ounce) hamburger buns, split
  • 4 lettuce leaves
  • 4 slices tomato
  • 4 slices sweet onion

Preparation

Step 1

Combine first 3 ingredients in a medium bowl, and stir well. Add tuna, 1/4 cup breadcrumbs, and green onions; stir well. Divide mixture into 4 equal portions, shaping each into a 4-inch patty. Press the remaining breadcrumbs evenly onto both sides of patties.

Coat a large nonstick skillet with cooking spray; place over medium-high heat until hot. Add patties; cover and cook 3 minutes. Carefully turn patties over; cook, uncovered, for 3 minutes or until patties are golden.

Spread mayonnaise evenly on the bun tops and bottoms. Place lettuce, tomato, onion, and patties on bottom halves of buns; place tops on sandwiches.
