Sweet potato tuna burgers
I crave these tuna patties. They have such flavor and you can make them a day in advance, they reheat so perfectly! Place a non peeled carrot into the oil when frying to avoid burning!

Ingredients:
Directions:
  1. In a small jar or bowl add the yogurt, ½ the chili pepper and ¼ cup of fresh basil. Mix well and set aside.
  2. Grate the sweet potatoes and place in a large bowl with the rest of the ingredients except the olive oil and mix well.
  3. Prepare a large skillet on high heat. Add a ¼ cup of olive oil and get hot. Use your hands to make burgers, squeezing out excess liquid right before you place it in the pan. Fry for 4 minutes per side.
  4. Use a wooden spoon AND a fish spatula to turn them over.
Notes & Tips:

If you make them in advance, reheat them in the oven uncovered. They last up to 6 days in the fridge and are even delicious room temperature!

Leftover tips for tomorrow’s lunch:

These burgers are SO good the next day and don’t even need to be reheated.  If you have leftover yogurt, add rice wine vinegar to it and mix really well as a creamy salad dressing!!
