Tuna Fish-Cheese Patties

• 2 slices bread, whole grain
• 2 tablespoons milk (or water)
• 1 (6 ounce) can solid white tuna, drained
• 3 tablespoons green peppers, finely chopped
• 3 tablespoons onions, finely chopped
• 1 garlic clove, smashed and minced
• 1 tablespoon chia seeds
• 1 egg, stirred
• 1/2 cup cheddar cheese, grated
• 1/4 cup panko breadcrumbs (or other bread crumbs)
• 2 tablespoons olive oil

1. Into a small bowl, tear-up the bread and soak in 2 tbsp milk for a couple minutes. Set aside.
2. In a mixing bowl, thoroughly mix all ingredients together (except oil and Panko).
3. If the mixture feels too wet, add Panko a tbsp at a time, until you can form soft balls.
4. Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a frying pan.
5. Form tuna mixture into patties and fry for 5 minutes until golden brown.
6. Carefully flip the patties. Add more oil if necessary and brown the other side for 5 minutes.
7. Drain on paper towels and serve after a 4 or 5 minute rest.
