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.

TUNA FISH PATTIES



Tuna Fish Patties image

This is a great recipe I came up with to get rid of leftover bread. I generally use the contents of my vegetable drawer here so I kind of throw in whatever I have at the time, so you can use your own judgment. They taste really nice when eaten with sour cream or low-fat mayo or even on their own - though my husband prefers ketchup. I generally use this recipe as a guideline, so have fun with it!
