R.O.D.-Parmesan Tuna/Salmon Patties

Here's another great recipe for transistioning to regular food.  This is good anytime though......

Parmesan Tuna (or salmon) Patties

by BamaGal Page 29 - Neighborhood Cookbook

Ingredients:
1 (6 3/4-oz) can albacore tuna (or salmon, I prefer red)
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
1 large egg
2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons ground flaxmeal
1 dash garlic powder
1 dash onion powder
1 dash salt

Directions:
Drain tuna. Blend all ingredients in a medium size bowl and form into patties.

 

Fry in olive oil or cooking spray until brown on edges.  Turn over, continue frying until done.

Contributor's Note: These are VERY GOOD and creamy!  Takes away the "fishy"
flavor of the tuna/salmon.   Fry up extras to refrigerate for snacks or quick lunches later.

Editor's Note: Flaxmeal, made of ground flaxseed, is rich in omega-3 fatty
acids which appear to help lower the risk of heart disease.   Flaxseed adds
a mild nutty flavor to foods and should be included regularly in a healthy
diet. Weight loss surgery patients should use ground flaxmeal rather than flaxseed for
digestibility reasons.

Recipe serves four. Per serving: 284 calories, 32 grams protein, 15 grams
fat (3 saturated) and 4 grams carbohydrate.

These sound so very good! Can't wait to try them out!
