Tasty Tuesday: Tuna Patties With Summer Salad

     Well, I have fully recovered from the stomach bug which means Tasty Tuesday is back in full swing, just like I promised. This week's recipe is tuna patties with summer salad. This is probably my favorite recipe I have ever made, hands down. It is easy, healthy, and takes no more than a total of 50 minutes to prepare. Y'all are in for a treat. Here ya go:



Tuna Patties:

12 oz can of chunk white tuna in water
1 slice of torn up wheat bread
3 tbsp honey mustard
1tbsp lemon juice
2tbsp chopped parsley
1tbsp water
Sprinkles of salt, pepper, and Cavender's all purpose Greek seasoning to your liking
1 egg
2tbsp olive oil

  • In a bowl, mix together tuna, torn bread, honey mustard, lemon juice, parsley, water, and seasonings. Add the egg and mix thoroughly.

  • Take a portion of the mix and form a patty, just like you would a hamburger patty. It should make 3-4 patties. Place on a cookie sheet and place in the fridge for 20-30 min to chill. This will help the patties stay together in the skillet.
  • Heat up the olive oil in a non stick skillet, and place the tuna patties in. 

  • Cook on each side for about 4 minutes, or until golden brown.
Salad Mix:

Spring Mix Lettuce (the darker the lettuce, the more nutritional value)
Feta 
Walnuts
Newman's Own Lite Raspberry Walnut Vinaigrette

This is the absolute best dressing you will put on a salad. It is lite and healthy! I promise after you try this combination of a salad, you'll never want anything else ever again. It is lite, healthy, packed with nutritional value, and goes with EVERYTHING.

          Okay, there ya have it. Oh, and yesterday I plopped one of the leftover patties on top of this salad mix for dinner, cold, and it was just as good!



Hope y'all enjoy! Happy Tuesday!
