I tried these last night Kierie, and they are really good. I used about 3/4 T Old Bay, and no pepper or salt (OB has both in it already). Mine stuck to the muffin tin, even though I sprayed with cooking spray, so next time I'll use liners.
Thanks!

Hmmm I think I'll cut the recipe by 1/3 and bake in my silicone muffin cups. I need to eat more fish!

Do you think it would taste good without the cheese? I know somethings just need the creaminess of cheese.

I'm bad about picking up canned tuna whenever it's on sale and not using it much. sounds like this would be great way to use it up. I tend to just force myself to eat it on salad or something.

Hmmm. Interesting. A tuna pabuca, but without the bread crumb binder. Kind of like a crab crake. I may have to try this sometime.
