Ingredients:

Serving

2 cups shredded zucchini
2 (6 oz) cans tuna, drained and flaked
2 eggs, slightly beaten
1 tbsp finely grated onion
1 tsp lemon juice
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
2 tbsp oil
lettuce leaf
1 tomato, cut in 6 slices
3 tbsp mayonnaise

Directions:

Drain zucchini in a paper towel-lined colander until as dry as possible (some squishing may be required!).
In a bowl, combine zucchini, tuna, eggs, lemon juice, salt and pepper.
Mix well.
Shape into six patties about 1 thick.
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add tuna patties and cook until browned on both sides, about 10 minutes.
(I have cooked these in batches).
To serve, place two patties on a lettuce leaf, top each with a slice of tomato and a dollop of mayonnaise.
