     These were delicious! Because I had it on hand, I replaced the celery with diced orange bell pepper and it added great flavor. I fried them in olive oil flavored Pam to cut some calories. I will definitely make these again and again. - 6/15/07

     I love these patties. They are so good on a whole wheat bun with romaine lettuce and thin slices of avocado. Fantastic! - 6/19/09

     Amazing idea to switch up everyday tuna. i used a countertop grill instead of frying, and ate it with a sweet potato. Even my younger brother liked it, a miracle! - 4/17/11

     My patties kept falling apart. Is there a trick to keeping them together? (I used 2 big cans of tuna, and perhaps the recipes calls for 2 small cans of tuna ... that might have been my problem. I'll have to try it again with small cans.) It might be better with a sauce added, as it was a bit dry - 3/21/07

     I like this . at times i add some hard boiled eggs to change what it tastes like . keep them guessing i always say . wrap it with a bun and heat for a min. in microwave . serve with chips - 2/1/12

     I cannot wait to try this, it is only 7 am and I am already dreaming of dinner - is that a bad sign lol? I have everything on hand and I know hubby and son will love this too. Will probably bump up horseradish because we love meals with a kick. Thanks so much!! - 2/1/12

     this was great-you don't even need to make burgers! add peas and make your own breadcrumbs with half a slice of wheat bread for a great, filling dish. - 12/26/10

     We loved these. I also added a cheese cracker in place of the bread crumbs and that gave this recipie a different tang. Even our tuna haters liked it! - 10/5/10

     Growing up this was a staple we called Tuna Loaf - Mom put it in a casserole dish and baked it using more bread crumbs. It was kinda like a dressing. Add a salad & fruit for a meal. - 4/11/10

     I like things with more spice- I will probably triple the horseradish- it was very good=DH couldn't tell it was canned tuna- loved it - 1/17/10

     Usually I like my tuna well disguised with mayo, but this was delicious! - 7/29/08

     I added some parsley, dill, and paprika. Regular chunk tuna has too mushy of a texture for me, so next time I think I will try using albacore. Delicious - will be making again. - 2/7/08

     I enjoyed it but lacked something. A bit bland and the patties were hard to keep together. - 3/21/07
  • TNEWBY2
     Didn't have horseradish so I left it out. I thought it was amazing and even my boyfriend has asked when I'm making them again! :-) - 3/13/07
  • ANHELIC
     I added 1/8 cup red onion and 1/8 cup red pepper and an extra minced garlic for added flavor. We love garlic here. The patties turned out excellent, moist and I served them on whole wheat buns. Even my brother who doesn't care for tuna enjoyed it. Topped with romaine lettuce and salad on side. - 2/17/18

     Mmm! This sounds wonderful I love tuna and it's full of Omega-3s. Can't wait to try this out real soon. Thanks for sharing it. I'll come back and rate it when I make it. - 3/10/17

     Tasty, but a little bit dry. - 1/3/14
  • DREAMBUILDER
     I found this recipe in the "Create your own Freezer Meals" So, when do you freeze them for future use? Patty and freeze before you bake or do you bake, cool then freeze to be rewarmed later. And if the later, do you thaw, cook from frozen, temp, time?? - 2/23/13

     try adding dill or parsley or both and maybe more horseradish according to reviewers. also albacore tuna will hold together better as a pattie. - 3/11/12
  • ANGELALUCAS
     mmm yummy - I added more horseradish and some dill and parsley to the mix. Also broiled them instead of frying. - 3/1/12

  • JILLINE
     Very good and I would also add more horseradish and additional spices next time. It was hard to keep the patties together though. - 2/3/12
