Crispy Tuna Fish Cake
These tuna patties aka tuna fish cakes, are a perfect way to use up cans of tuna. You’ll be amazed at how cans of tuna fish can make such delicious patties! This dish pairs well with a southern coleslaw.
Have you ever tried tuna patties? Better yet, how do you use up a can of tuna? I’m sure you’ve had tuna sandwiches. But what else have you made with a can of tuna? One of my favorite ways to eat tuna is to make tuna patties. My mom used to make them because they were delicious, cheap, and quick and easy as well. Now, I make them for my family, and they love them.
If you’re looking for a new tuna recipe, so you aren’t bored with eating tuna in the same way over and over again then this recipe is just what you’re looking for.
To help you out, make these patties in advance. Maybe when you have some extra time this weekend, you could make them to leave in the refrigerator for a couple of days. You could make and serve it to your family one day next week. They're simple to make and just so good!
