Tips:
- For a crispy tuna patty, make sure to drain the tuna well and mix it with breadcrumbs. This will help to absorb any excess moisture and create a firmer patty.
- If you don't have any breadcrumbs, you can use crushed crackers or cornflakes.
- To make the pizza sauce, you can use your favorite store-bought sauce or make your own by simmering tomatoes, garlic, and oregano in olive oil.
- If you don't have any pizza dough, you can use flatbread or even tortillas.
- Be creative with your toppings! You can use any of your favorite pizza toppings, such as cheese, pepperoni, mushrooms, or onions.
- Serve the tuna pizza burgers with a side of your favorite dipping sauce, such as ranch dressing or marinara sauce.
