Lunch time rolled around today and I had a can of tuna (Chicken of the Sea, which my 4 year old is completely convinced that it is actually canned mermaid meat and therefore refuses to eat it!). I was SO not in the mood for tuna salad…again! So I decided to CREATE! It turned out delicious! I needed a creative name for my creation cuz Round, Flat Yummy Tuna Thingy just wasn’t going to get the fame it deserved so I searched around online for photos and ideas and found that my idea wasn’t really all that original. Oh well, fame isn’t all it’s cracked up to be anyway, I’m sure. Meanwhile, here’s MY version of apparently what is called a Tuna Burger. I served mine over salad greens and topped it with some feta cheese and Red Wine Vinaigrette but you could also put it on a bun to make it an actual burger if you prefer.
2 5 oz. cans of tuna in water, well drained
1/4 cup finely chopped celery
1/4 cup finely chopped onion
Pinch of salt
1/8 tsp. dill
1 beaten egg
(Just sayin’, I don’t measure things so these are approximates). Mix all ingredients together and grill or fry in olive oil cooking spray. Enjoy!
