It was the last day of my Christmas vacation. I was bored and hungry and decided to make something healthy for lunch using what I had in the house. Adding buffalo sauce put a fun twist on an easy-to-make meal of tuna patties.
These tuna patties would also be great as an alternative to burgers, just serve them on a bun instead of using beef.
Here’s the recipe:
2 tbsp oil
2 (5 oz) cans of chunk tuna in water
4 tbsp bread crumbs
2 tbsp buffalo sauce
4 tbsp mayo
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp pepper
1 tsp salt
4 slices of cheddar cheese
Heat the oil in a skillet on medium high. In the meantime, drain the tuna. Mix together the tuna, bread crumbs, buffalo sauce and mayo. Season with garlic powder, pepper and salt. Shape into 4 equal patties. Cook in the skillet for 1 minute on each side or until browned. Bring the heat down to low and cook for 2 minutes. Serve with a slice of cheese on each patty.

I’ve never tried buffalo sauce with tuna, but it sounds like it would be such a great idea! I agree with Miz Helen, it would definitely kick it up a notch.
