TASTY TUNA PATTIES
If you're ever pressed for time, start with a couple cans of tuna and you'll have a delicious patty in no time that you can serve a number of different ways. Add them to buns with your favorite toppings for sandwiches, serve them alongside a fresh salad, or make smaller versions of them and serve them as appetizers with tartar sauce on the side. There are a lot of great flavor elements in these easy and versatile patties, but the quantities are small so the flavor still comes out pretty mild. If you're looking for a stronger flavor, increase quantities as you like!

TUNA FISH-CHEESE PATTIES
Tuna patties are milder than salmon. And the flavor of the other ingredients shine through the tuna. Serve them on a plate with pan-fried potatoes and sliced tomatoes and avocados. Or in a toasted pita with lettuce, thin sliced tomatoes and a touch of mayo. Don't forget a handful of potato chips.

CHEESY TUNA PATTIES
My husband came up with this recipe one winter afternoon while pondering what to cook for me that would meet my low carb diet and also not require going out of the house. This is a simple and brilliant recipe, and can be done with any canned fish. It goes well with a bowl of tomato soup.

Steps:
- 1. Beat eggs lightly. Drain tuna and add to eggs. Mix in cheese, chopped onion and seasonings. Let sit for a few minutes to blend the flavors.
- 2. Heat a medium skillet over medium heat. Add olive oil to heating pan until bottom is just coated. Using a pancake ring (or a tuna can with both top and bottom removed) in the pan, pat tuna mix into ring. Allow to sit for a moment, then remove ring and repeat until all tuna mix is used. Cook for five minutes on first side, or until bottoms are golden brown. Carefully flip over and cook for an additional 5 minutes.
- 3. Top patties with sliced cheese (we use double cheddar). Cover, reduce heat, and allow residual heat to melt the cheese onto the patties. Serve warm.
Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh tuna, sharp cheddar cheese, and flavorful seasonings make all the difference in these patties.
- Don't overmix the patties: Overmixing will make the patties tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Chill the patties before cooking: This will help them hold their shape better when cooked.
- Cook the patties over medium heat: This will help them cook evenly without burning.
- Serve the patties immediately: These patties are best enjoyed fresh out of the pan.
Conclusion:
These tuna fish cheese patties are a quick, easy, and delicious meal that the whole family will enjoy. They're perfect for a weeknight dinner or a weekend lunch. Serve them with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple salad.
