No Tuna Cakes

No Tuna Cakes

This recipe actually started off as a Tuna Salad. I was trying a different Vegan Tuna from All Vegetarian Inc and decided that the texture would be great in cakes. I often make a Chic Pea Tuna-less Salad which you can find the recipe for here on the site. I’m guessing you could try using Chic Peas (very mashed) in place of the Vegan Tuna if it’s hard to find. It has all the deliciousness of a Tuna-less Salad but with an extra crisp from the quick fry and finish in the oven.

Makes 12-14 med cakes
