Mini Tuna Ricotta Cakes

Notes: These freeze really well; once they are formed into patties or meatballs, freeze immediately (don’t cook).  To thaw, leave in refrigerator until thawed and cook as directed.
For a Higher Fat Version: Substitute full fat ricotta and whole egg.

Ingredients:
8 oz canned tuna (2 cans)
8 oz fat free ricotta
1 egg white
1 Tb minced onion
1/4 tsp dill
1/8 tsp white pepper
1/8 tsp lemon pepper
1 tsp hot sauce
1 Tb coconut flour (or other gluten free flour)
1/4 cup gluten free breadcrumbs

Directions:
1. Combine all ingredients in a large bowl and mix gently. Let sit 10 minutes so flavors can combine.
2. Divide into desired-size patties or ‘meatballs’ – I find 2-2.5oz allows them to stick together really well.
3. Bake at 350 for 30-35 minutes.
