The Best Low Carb Tuna Patties

INGREDIENTS:

• 2 cans (5 oz) of tuna in water, drained (I prefer wild-caught albacore)

• 1/4 cup of green onion, thinly sliced
• 1 lemon (zest + juice)

• 1/2 + cup of panko bread crumbs* (OR coconut flour,  homemade almond meal/almond flour, gluten-free all-purpose flour, gluten-free panko bread crumbs, regular breadcrumbs, etc.)
• 1-2 tablespoons of cooking oil (I typically use coconut oil, avocado oil or olive oil)
