Tuna Cakes with Zucchini, Carrots, Celery and Sun-dried Tomato Sour Cream

Wow! These were so yummy!

Tuna Cakes with Zucchini, Carrots, Celery and Sun-dried Tomato Sour Cream
Makes 4 patties

Ingredients
  • 1/3 cup low fat sour cream
  • 3-4 sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil, drained
  • 1/2 teaspoon seasoning salt
  • 1 can (170g) chunk light tuna in water, drained
  • 1/2 cup grated zucchini

Directions
  1. In a food processor, puree sour cream, sun-dried tomatoes and seasoning salt. Set in the fridge until ready to use.
