    Very good! Next time will use the tuna in the envelope - had a hard time getting the tuna to stick to make a patty. Mine was more like a tuna omelet..=) Still tasty though and will try it again. - 1/31/11

    I was looking for a new (healthy) way to eat canned tuna, and both my husband and I thought this was great. We'll be eating this again! - 10/28/10

    Excellent! Just made this for dinner and I couldn't get enough - it was amazing! I used minced onions instead of fresh ones and I skipped the garlic, but it was great! - 9/4/10

    This was pretty good, especially considering how it's so easy, low-cal, and high protein. It's nice to have a quick and different recipe to turn to in a pinch. - 7/16/10
