Carol's Notes:

Inexpensive and easy to make ! Always liked these for a busy day with not much in the house to make for dinner with beans and baked fries ~ Also you don't need to buy the all white tuna which is more expensive the darker tuna just adds more flavor to them. Enjoy!

It probably is like your Salmon cakes and I mentioned that in the recipe as well ~ it is an old old recipe I remember my Mom making them on Friday nights when we couldn't eat meat, we are Catholics, and thats the way it was back then. My mom has passed over 33 years ago, so yea it is an old one, but just thought maybe there is someone that has never even heard of it.

Thanks, Carol. I will try these. We are Catholic too but all we ever had on Friday was Mac and Cheese or Tuna Noodle casserole. I will not eat Tuna Noodle casserole to this day. But I will try your tuna cakes.
