Who else LOVES Tuna Burgers? They’re cheap and so easy! I really wanted to make a low carb version and I love cheese crisps, so challenge accepted! I made some cucumber and tomato salad to go with them.
3 cups Cheddar Cheese
3 large Lettuce Leaves
1 medium Onion; sliced
1 medium Tomato; sliced
—
Tuna Patties:
10 oz. Canned Tuna; well drained
2 large Eggs
⅓ cup Onion; chopped
¼ cup Green Onions; chopped
¼ cup Bell Pepper; chopped
¼ teaspoon Smoked Paprika
¼ teaspoon Celery Seeds
½ teaspoon Garlic Powder
½ teaspoon Mustard Powder
2 Tablespoons Dill Weed
1 teaspoon Lemon Juice
Salt and Pepper to taste
—
Aioli:
½ cup Mayonnaise
1 teaspoon Dill Weed
½ teaspoon Garlic Powder
1 ½ Tablespoons Lemon Juice
Salt to taste
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Add ½ cup cheddar in six piles over a baking sheet with parchment paper. Bake until golden brown and crispy; about 6 minutes. Set aside to cool.
- Mix the tuna patty ingredients in a medium bowl and line a small baking sheet with parchment paper. Form the mixture into 3 large patties and place on the parchment paper. Bake for 15 minutes, or until the patties are cooked through and firm.
- Meanwhile, add the mayo, garlic powder, salt and lemon juice to a small bowl. Mix well, then cover and place in the fridge.
- Place each of the patties over a cheese crisp and top with the aioli. Add the lettuce and tomato over top and cover with the remaining cheese crisps.
- Enjoy!
