These patties take the cake! Canned tuna is the surprise ingredient in these veggie-packed rounds. If you'd like, add more zip to the creamy mustard-mayo sauce with prepared horseradish. —Taste of Home Test Kitchen

I used albacore and I think this recipe would definitely do better with the flakier (ie cheaper) tuna. I also don't like frying anything (even if for only a few minutes), so I baked mine. I put it on an aluminum lined baking sheet, lightly sprayed with some canola oil. I put it in at 425 deg F, about 11 minutes, turning them halfway. I think they were a good "done-ness". I will definitely use this recipe again, making my own tweaks.Update: I tried it using the chunk light and I feel that made a better "cake". However, I felt the cake itself was extremely bland. Next time I'm going to increase the seafood seasoning, that should do the trick.

This was one recipe that our whole family enjoyed - surprisingly since the kids don't like fish! It had great flavor - especially with the mayo. Simple, fast and cheap!

Not a fan of Tuna so I use Salmon and keep the rest the same. Very Good!! Husband loves the Mustard Mayo. A nice change from Tarter Sauce.

always looking for new and tasty ways to serve canned tuna. ( one word: BUDGET ) this was not only good to eat but fun to make and the mustard mayo was good drizzled over vegetables too.

3/25/14 made these for a light dinner tonight. Thoroughly enjoyed them. Will make again. Do not usually like mayo, but added mustard w/horseradish in it and that was very good.

brownnoze you could substitute any vegetable you want, it would just adjust the nutritional values at the bottom. The peas do not contribute to the tuna cakes themselves.

Okay I have question for all you. I do not like peas at all (I mean I HATE them). What do the peas add to the recipe besides a veggie? Do you think maybe corn would work instead?
