Canned Tuna
Choose a quality brand, or try a few brands to find one you like. My opinion is: do not store tuna with a 5 year rotation, although that works for some meats, to me tuna tastes best with around a rotation of 2 to 3 years.

Can use the tuna pattie recipe to make salmon patties......

Crusty Tuna Pattie Dinner

Patties:
1 can (5 to 6 oz. can) tuna, drained 
(save liquid if making sauce; recipe follows) 
1 large egg 
1 T. potato flakes
1 tsp. oil 
1⁄2 tsp. lemon pepper 
1⁄4 tsp. garlic salt 
1⁄2 stalk celery, minced 
3 T. minced onion 
3 to 5 T. oil for cooking 

Mix tuna, egg, potato flakes, oil, lemon pepper, garlic salt, celery, and onion. Heat pan on medium; add oil for cooking.  Form 8 small patties in hot oil using a spoon. Cook 4 minutes on each side. Makes 2 to 3 servings. Serve with sauce, if desired.

​

Sauce Idea: drained tuna-water + water to equal 1/2 cup; set aside. Mix in jar: 3 T. dry milk powder,

1 T. unbleached flour, 1/4 tsp. True Lemon powder. Add tuna/water mixture, put lid on jar tightly. Shake until smooth. Pour in sauce pan, heat on medium-high, stirring constantly until thick, stir/cook for 1 minute. Take off heat, add up to 1/8 tsp. dill weed and couple shakes garlic salt, stir. Cover, let sit. 

​

 

Garlic Mashed Potatoes:
Follow directions for making mashed potatoes from Potato Flakes, first adding to dry potato flakes: 

1 T. dry milk; dried garlic bits or garlic granules to taste, dried parmesan.  Can add butter to taste to the cooked mashed potatoes, OR add dried butter powder to the dry milk/garlic/parmesan. 

​

Green Beans:
Canned cut or frenched, or home-bottled.

Heat; add 1/2 tsp. butter and sprinkle lightly with salt or garlic salt.
