Skinny Tuna Cakes

 While the husband is away, the wife will.............eat healthier?!?!  Well that's exactly what this lady did.  I took full advantage of Kevin being gone to explore some recipes that he wouldn't care for.  Aren't I such a sweetheart?   This particular recipe, made by Skinny Mom, was very scrumptious.  It was so simple, yet packed with flavor.  If you aren't a huge fan of tuna, this recipe is great because the seasoning makes it not so fishy.  And if you love tuna, this is a way to spice it up and try it a different way.  


Skinny Tuna Cakes with chipotle mayo
4 servings

Ingredients

Tuna Cakes:
3 (3 ounce) cans/pouches tuna in water
1/s Tablespoon Old Bay seasoning
1/2 of an onion, chopped
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
2 egg whites
1/3 cup panko bread crumbs

Chipotle Mayo: 
1/4 cup Miracle-Whip 
1 teaspoons chili powder
1 teaspoon lime juice

Open and thoroughly drain tuna.  Once drained, mix together the tuna with the remaining tuna cake ingredients.  Refrigerate for 1 hour to help better form the patties.  Form into 4 patties.  

Spray your pan with non-stick spray and heat over medium.  Add the tuna cakes and turn occasionally, making sure to brown each side, about 3 minutes per side.  Meanwhile, mix all the chipotle mayo ingredients.  

Serve the tuna cakes with the chipotle mayo.
