  • 1 can tuna, drained
  • 2 tablespoons oats
  • 2 tablespoons shredded cheese
  • 1 large egg

For the Lemon Yogurt Sauce:

• • • 2 tablespoons Greek yogurt
    • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
    • 1/4 teaspoon dill
    • 1/4 teaspoon garlic salt

Guidelines

1. Grate the zucchini and wrap it in a fresh kitchen towel to prepare it. Remove as much liquid as you can to make sure the patties stay together.
2. Combine the patties: Grated zucchini, drained tuna, oats, shredded cheese, egg, onion powder, dill, and freshly ground pepper should all be combined in a big dish.
3. Create the Patties: Shape the mixture into little patties with a diameter of two to three inches using your hands.
4. Prepare the patties: A nonstick skillet should be heated to medium heat. Grease the skillet with a little amount of oil. Cook the patties on the grill for 3–4 minutes on each side, or until they are cooked through and have a golden brown hue.
5. To make the Lemon Yogurt Sauce, place the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, dill, and garlic salt in a small dish and stir until thoroughly blended and smooth.
6. Serving suggestion: Present the warm zucchini tuna patties with the lemon yogurt sauce. If desired, garnish with more dill and serve with slices of lemon.
