When I thought of this idea I was stood by the fridge looking in. If my dear old dad was alive he would of asked what TV programme was going on. I took a look at the eggs and remember we had tuna. I got to work creating this burger. They are packed with protein and seasoned beautifully. Plus they were a delicious way to enjoy tuna in a whole new style.

Tuna Burgers were so yummy. My husband Howard and Ted ate there’s in a bun and I had mine plain. Whether we serve them in a bun or with a fresh salad these burgers are sure to become a go to recipe in our house. I wouldn’t recommend you freeze these before eating as the mixture was quite wet. I think they are best made fresh to order. However you decide to eat this dish, as always, please enjoy. Thank you xxx
