In a large bowl, combine all the ingredients; nix well.
2
Shape the mixture into 4 equal size patties.
3

I made these a while back and need to make them again before I add any stars to my review. I remember them being good but they fell apart a bit. I don't normally like warm (or hot) tuna, but this was an exception for me. I look forward to making these again

These were really delicious. I've tried a lot of tuna patty recipes and I think this is the keeper! I followed the recipe aside from one (odd) substitution. I didn't have any tomato juice, so I mixed crushed tomatoes with dill pickle juice in about a 2:1 ratio. I left the amount of dill the same because we're dill freaks. I really like how healthy the wheat germ makes these instead of just adding empty carbs with bread crumbs. Served with some mayo with red pepper paste and crushed garlic. Thanks so much Paula!

Very good recipe and healthy! I made 1/2 the amount and was able to made 6 medium sized patties. I also added lemon juice and garlic. I separated the servings and ate 3 patties first and decided to jazz up the second 3 by adding some crumbled cheese to the mixture. It was DELICIOUS!!! I am definitely making more of these. Thanks!!!
