Light, zesty, and packed with protein—these tuna burgers are the ultimate, easy, high protein lunch or dinner! I use simple canned tuna, so this recipe comes together fast for a healthy, low-calorie meal that you will love! These patties taste just as good the next day too, so they are great for meal prep for a busy week!
If you haven’t tried Spike seasoning, I highly recommend it! I’ve been using it for years. It’s so good in these tuna patties, and it’s also amazing on avocado, cottage cheese, and roasted vegetables! You should be able to find it in your grocery store, or you can head on over to my Amazon storefront, look under Ingredients, and you’ll find it there!

Combine the tuna, egg whites, egg, Spike, parsley, celery, onion, and lemon zest in a bowl.

Pour the reserved liquid (it’s the eggs!) evenly over each of the patties and tuck in any spills to keep the patty shape.

Cover and cook for 3-4 minutes, then flip, cover and cook on the other side for 3-4 minutes, until done!
