Cajun tuna burgers

How do you make this American staple healthier? Try seafood, which is low in fat and calories and filled with heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids. Because of seafood's many benefits, the 2010 Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommends people should eat at least eight ounces of seafood a week. Substituting seafood, such as tuna, for the protein a recipe calls for is an easy way to make any meal healthier.

CAJUN TUNA BURGERS

Ingredients

2 (12-oz) cans of tuna in water, drained

1 cup breadcrumbs

2 eggs, beaten

1/2 cup each: diced red bell pepper, green bell pepper and green onions

1/4 cup Cajun seasoning

1 tsp hot pepper sauce

6 whole-wheat hamburger buns

Procedure

1. In a bowl, combine tuna, breadcrumbs and eggs. Add the next ingredients and mix.
