I first saw this in Kraft's What's Cooking magazine and I really like them. I don't normally make recipes that call for processed products like the box stuffing that is in this recipe but I'll be the first to admit that this recipe makes really great tuna cakes!! They are definitely a good weeknight meal served with a salad.
