tuna burgers

Our family has always loved tuna.  It's been a staple around here for as long as I can remember.  No matter how you prepare it, it's a very inexpensive meal.  One recipe that we particularly enjoy are tuna burgers.

Mix together:  
 2 cans of tuna (drained)
 1 piece of bread broken into pieces
 1 egg
 2 Tbsp. chopped dill pickles
              (I like more though!)
 1 1/2 Tbsp. mustard

Add cornmeal to make patties hold together.  If the mixture is too wet, the patties will fall apart in the pan.





Heat oil in a skillet and lightly sprinkle with cornmeal.  Brown patties on both sides.  I like for mine to be crusty on the outside.  I've found that it's easier to achieve this if you cook them in a cast iron skillet.





When they're finished cooking, just prepare them like you would a normal hamburger and enjoy!
