I also make some tuna patties...
You can make them with the packets of plain, or flavored tuna, or even salmon. I just mix 1 packet/can with one whole egg, and a tablespoon of flour (just enough to make it stick). You can add in whatever spices your heart desires. I like putting in red pepper flakes, or Ms's Dash. Then you make a patty out of it and put it in a coated pan and cook it on medium heat until cooked on the one side, and flip over. Pretty good with hot sauce on top or melted cheese.

Also, just to add to this.. If you'd rather not use the flour.. I use a little bit of old fashioned oats as the binder.. Works great!

You could also use ground flax meal, soy flour (it's low carb) or almond flour also, oh, and wheat bran/flakes....

¾ cup (175 mL) ground flaxseed
1 tbsp (15 mL) ground cinnamon
1 tbsp (15 mL) splenda

1-¾ cup (425 mL) skim milk
1 egg
1 tsp (5 mL) pure vanilla extract

Pour milk mixture into the flour mixture and stir until well combined. Stir in the blueberries.

Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Lightly spray with canola oil. Drop spoonfuls of the batter into the heated pan and cook until tiny bubbles appear on the top of each pancake, from 2 to 3 minutes.

Flip and cook for about 2 minutes or until golden and cooked through. As pancakes are done, transfer to a warm oven 200F (100C) until all pancakes are cooked.

French Toast
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Diet French Toast Bites

2 slices of whole-wheat bread
1/4 cup of Egg Beaters or other liquid egg substitute
3 Tablespoons of Fat-Free Milk
1/4 teaspoons of vanilla extract
1 pinch cinnamon or nutmeg
1 pinch salt (optional)
Cut each slice of bread into 4 squares. You can leave or remove the crust.
In a large shallow bowl, mix together the egg substitute, milk, vanilla, cinnamon, and, if you want, the salt.

Prepare a large skillet on a heat just above medium with no-fat cooking spray.

Add all the bread pieces to the "egg" mixture bowl and gently scoot them around with your fingers -- flipping each piece so both sides are drenched and all the mixture is absorbed.

Start cooking the bread pieces in the skillet a batch (as many pieces as you can fit in the skillet) at a time. Brown each slice for about 3 or 4 minutes. Give the skillet another thin spray of cooking oil between each batch.

Serve and enjoy!

I made these kick ass lean chix burgers, with egg whites and oatmeal... I was wondering what you thought about coating it with shaken bake (on the outside of the burger) it would be sooo good and really it's not allot of shaken bake...
