Jack's Tasty Tuna Burgers
"I found this on a little scrap piece of newspaper clippng. Have not tried it yet, but if I don't post it I will lose it. It calls for a 9 ounce can of tuna, which I don't think they make anymore, so I suppose 2 cans of tuna now. I like it because it is baked in a loaf pan and then sliced for sandwiches. I am always looking for ways to get more fish in our diet. You probably could use salmon instead of tuna. Probably would also be good without the bread, just serve it like you would meatloaf."

This is very good, there just isn't much of it. There was no need, really for it to go into a loaf pan. I added about a Tbsp. of finely chopped red bell pepper. Otherwise I made it as is. Flavor was very nice. I will definat It wouikldely make it again, only I will X's it a lot! Thanks for sharing! 2/10 After carefull consideration, I am going to give this 5 stars. It was very flavorful, the texture was great, it was just baked in the wrong kind of pan. It should've been baked in a "Grab-it" bowl or perhaps a small oven-proof baking dish. Don't let it go over the time limit, or it will be dry. Great recipe!

Well it is December 20, 2009 and DH and I are sitting on our lanai having a cocktail. Just got done with eating some chicken wings, courtesy of a Recipezaar recipe. They were delicious, of course.
<br>The picture above is yours truly with one of our two dogs, Fritz a Cairn Terrier. Our other pooch is Kelly, a Miniature Schnauzer. We will try and post a picture of her at a later date.
<br>I should have made my name Naturelovers, because my DH is enjoying this site as much as I do!
<br>We are retired and enjoy the outdoors here in FL, like boating, fishing, beaches and gardening.
<br>Between us we have 6 children, 8 grandchildren and 2 great-grandsons and 1 great-granddaughter on the way. I have always enjoyed cooking and Recipezaar has really opened up new horizons.
<br>I am well noted for finding a great recipe that is a big hit and then losing it. I'm hoping by joining Recipezaar, I will lose that reputation. I remember one recipe, about 48 years ago, and yes I still remember it. I found the recipe in a local newspaper and it is gone. It was for a German dish, sauerbraten, not to vinegary, no gingersnaps and served with dumplings. Oh my, was it good, but alas, gone.
