This tuna burger is one of my favorite dishes because it is simple and quick to make, but is also so delicious and filling. It also acts as a great way to eat more vegetables! My favorite vegetables to include are carrots, corn, and portobello mushrooms. The crunch of the corn and carrots makes for a brilliant sensation. What makes this recipe even more amazing is that you could easily add the vegetables you prefer.
