Tuna Fish-Cheese Patties

Submitted by Kathy228

"Tuna patties are milder than salmon. And the flavor of the other ingredients shine through the tuna. Serve them on a plate with pan-fried potatoes and sliced tomatoes and avocados. Or in a toasted pita with lettuce, thin sliced tomatoes and a touch of mayo. Don't forget a handful of potato chips."

The flavor wasn't too bad but the bread gave this a definite "mushy" texture -- sorry, not to our liking. Won't be making this one again. Thanks for sharing, though, Kathy.
