awesomely simple recipe. i used ketchup and sriracha instead of the tomato juice, and added a lil onion powder and old bay. amazed at how well the wheat germ holds the patties together. didn't have dill. quick and easy. i made a sriracha mayo. i made four, but i could make mini patties and sit these out as an economical appetizer for guests. keeper.

I made these a while back and need to make them again before I add any stars to my review. I remember them being good but they fell apart a bit. I don't normally like warm (or hot) tuna, but this was an exception for me. I look forward to making these again :)

These were really delicious. I've tried a lot of tuna patty recipes and I think this is the keeper! I followed the recipe aside from one (odd) substitution. I didn't have any tomato juice, so I mixed crushed tomatoes with dill pickle juice in about a 2:1 ratio. I left the amount of dill the same because we're dill freaks. I really like how healthy the wheat germ makes these instead of just adding empty carbs with bread crumbs. Served with some mayo with red pepper paste and crushed garlic. Thanks so much Paula!

very good, I used the 2 tablespoons fresh dill but next time I will decrease slightly, the wheat germ added somewhat to the flavor, not sure if I would use it again though, I also added in 2 tablespoon mayonnaise, 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper, fresh ground black pepper and seasoned salt, thanks for sharing Paula!
