Truly Easy Tuna Patties

These tuna patties are so so good. For a while I decided not to eat cow meat, for personal reasons, and these tuna patties are the best replacement!

Another reason I decided to incorporate this into my staples meals is its loaded with so much protein. 38g of protein per serving to be exact.

Consuming a high protein diet is another great way to loose weight because of a few reasons:

• Protein takes longer to be digested therefore it keeps you satiated longer

• Lean proteins are generally low in calories so it’s hard to go over the calorie bank

Give this recipe a try over some cauliflower rice and peas or maybe even in between some hamburger buns.
