Ingredients

2 cans (6 oz/175 g each) water-packed white tuna, drained
1 egg white
1/4 cup (60 mL) dry bread crumbs
1/4 cup (60 mL) green onions, sliced
2 tbsp (30 mL) light salad dressing
2 tbsp (30 mL) Dijon mustard
1 tsp (5 mL) dried dill weed
1/8 tsp (.5 mL) garlic powder

4 tsp (20 mL) Dijon mustard
4 whole wheat hamburger buns, split
4 lettuce leaves
1 tomato, sliced

Directions

For burgers, in a medium mixing bowl, flake tuna with a fork. Add remaining burger ingredients; mix well. Form tuna mixture into four ½" (1 cm) thick patties. Lightly spray a 10" (25-cm) skillet with vegetable oil using a Kitchen Spritzer; heat over medium heat 1-3 minutes or until shimmering. Cook patties 6 minutes, carefully turning once during cooking.
Spread 1 tsp (5 mL) Dijon mustard on bottom half of each bun. Top with lettuce, tomato, tuna burger and remaining bun half. Serve immediately.
