We had tuna cakes for dinner. They were surprisingly good. I got the recipe from kraftfoods.com. I added a little green onion, left out the relish, and halved the recipe. It was the perfect amount of food for me and Clark. The only problem I had, was that the cakes really stuck to my pan. So I wonder if it would be better to use oil next time, instead of Pam. Or maybe I just need to use more Pam.

A couple of things you could try.
1 spray a little pam on the tuna cake before you pan fry it (I'm not sure if this will work but it's worth a try)
2 use a non stick pan (maybe you did)
3 don't try to turn them too soon. all fish tends to stick if you try to turn it too soon. Just keep trying to gently lift an edge untill it releases.
4. go to McDonalds for a fish sandwitch if all else fails

Sounds really good! I would include the relish tough..I love it. I like the idea of the stuffing mix. Can't wait to try it. . . maybe tomorrow.
This really does sound delicious!!
