Directions
In a bowl beat egg whites till they thicken, mix in tuna, finely chopped green onions, garlic powder, black pepper and 1/8 cup of flour. Shape tuna mixture into 8 small round patties. Heat a pan with olive oil or cooking spray - cook (fry) patties browning evenly on both sides till crispy on the outside.

To make sauce that goes over the tuna patties:
Heat another pan and add saute diced tomatoes and onions, garlic powder, salt, pepper and a small amount of chicken boullion - (to taste). Add water (as needed) and a small amount of flour to thicken sauce a little.

Serve tuna patties and sauce over them with a side of brown rice and a side of one of your favorite vegetables.

I suggest asparagus or green beans.
