First, mix some tuna, mayo, and mustard together. Add some pepper, and season salt.
Now this is where 
you can go a little butt wild with your creative side....Add whatever your family likes in their tuna..Maybe chopped eggs, green onions, celery, relish etc...go for it!!

I love reading your blog! you crack me up. spam sucking trailer trash? Ha ha ha ha ha.
I am still laughing while I am trying to type a response! That was halarious! My girls don't do tuna, but the entire blog was so clever I want to try it just for kicks! Thanks for brightening my day. Seriously!
As your sister here, I can attest to the truth of your blog and the wonder of Tuna Burgers. When Rom and I were first married, I didn't know how to cook much. So, when his sister came to visit, and he wanted me to impress her with my cooking, guess what he asked me to make? Yes, Tuna Burgers! The sad thing is I burned them. We OWN it!
I'm pretty sure my mom made those when I was a kid :)
You are simply one of the funniest people I know! “Spam sucking trailer trash” Where do you come up with this stuff! LOL!! I bet my kids would love that! They would eat tuna every day if I would let them!!
Comfort food. Those remind me of my childhood. While I was working in Kauai, we were treated to lunch one day at the hotel. Our employer told us to choose anything we wanted. All three of us chose the tuna melt. It brought back memories! I am embracing my trashy side as well.
You are sooo crackin' me up!! I need to come over and hang out with you in person!!! Lovin the food ideas and glad to know I'm not the only one feeding my kids less than gourmet meals.
