Delicious Tuna Cakes

These Delicious Tune Cakes are a staple in our house and one of my favorite meals I cook. Not only are they packed with flavor but I love them because I usually have most of the ingredients on-hand and can whip them up in no time.

It’s rare that I buy canned foods (I try to stick to fresh produce and whole meats or fish) but when I do, I always choose Wild Planet Albacore Tuna. The fish they offer is wild and sustainably-caught – not farm-raised which is important to me- and also contain less mercury than standard canned fish.

I always keep several jars in our pantry so I have them for those weeknights when I’m not sure whether I’ll cook. The rest of the ingredients in this recipe – like egg, flour, breadcrumbs, mustard, mayo – I usually have in my fridge/pantry so it’s simple to pull these tuna cakes together.

Side note: I used to buy these cans of tuna for a whopping $5 each at Whole Foods (you’re paying for the better quality fish, of course) but I recently found the exact Albacore Wild Tuna on Amazon for $3 a can, so I now purchase in bulk from there.

I usually make these tuna cakes in advance during the day and then store in the fridge for a few hours. When you’re ready to eat, they’re ready in less than 10 minutes. Let me know how you like them!
