Tuna Cakes
Ingredients
2 6oz cans of light tuna in water, drained
1 6oz package stuffing mix for chicken
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 cup shredded carrots
1/3 cup mayonnaise
2 Tablespoons sweet pickle relish
3/4 cup water
John also added about 1 Tablespoon of lemon juice
Directions
Mix all ingredients in a large bowl.
Cover bowl and refrigerate for 10 minutes.
Heat a large nonstick skillet and spray with cooking spray. Scoop tuna mixture, using about 1/3 cup for each cake, into skillet. Gently flatten cakes with spatula.
Cook for 3 minutes on each side or until golden brown.
Amanda's Analysis:
I thought these tuna cakes were very good! I liked that they were quick and simple and that we had all the ingredients already. They could have used some sort of sauce but I can't quite think of what would have gone well with them. Perhaps tartar sauce, but that might have been too much flavor. I give them 6 spoons.
John's Jibba-Jabba:
These were a bit dry and definitely needed a sauce or something. I agree that tartar sauce would not work. I think that something like the sauce used for shrimp cocktails would work very nicely. We may have to try that next time. I think these guys deserve 5 spoons but they could do much better next time with a sauce.
