Tuna Cakes

My husband is repulsed by fish, especially tuna fish, so lets not tell him about these tuna cakes the kids and I have been enjoying lately. ;)

I love to make these for lunch to switch things up a bit. It's such a simple and great way to get some Omega 3 fatty acids into your diet. 

If you are a fish lover, then go try these out, and let me know what you think!

INGREDIENTS:

- 2 (5 oz.) BPA-free cans of wild albacore tuna fish, drained (I like this kind)

- 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice (about 1 lemon)

- 2 tablespoons finely chopped onion

- 2 eggs, beaten

- 1 tablespoon chia seeds

- 1 tablespoon dried parsley

- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

- 1/2 teaspoon unrefined sea salt

- dash of black pepper

DIRECTIONS:

1.  Add all ingredients into a medium-sized bowl, and mix to combine.

2.  Using 1/3 cup, scoop up mixture, and place in (clean) hands, and squeeze to form into patties.  Repeat until all patties are made.

3.  Turn skillet to medium heat, and add a dab of coconut oil.  Place patties on skillet, and cook for 6 to 7 minutes, carefully flip, then cook for an additional 6 to 7 minutes.

4.  We enjoy ours dipped in mustard or paired with hummus or a side salad.

Makes approximately 5 cakes
