Tuna burgers on an English muffin

     Ever have a hamburger craving but it's not anywhere near your cheat day?!?!  Well, duh!  Who doesn't crave a big juicy hamburger daily?  Here's a healthy "fix" I found that super cheap, easy, and tasty.  When I made this for dinner, I paired the burgers with a serving of Bush's baked beans and baked sweet potato fries.  Yes, please!  This recipe is originally from canyoustayfordinner.com.

Tuna Burgers (makes 4)
2, 6 oz cans tuna fish, drained and flaked  
1/2 cup panko bread crumbs 
1/4 cup finely chopped green onions 
3 tablespoons minced fresh parsley  
2 cloves garlic, minced  
1/4 teaspoon each, salt and pepper  
juice of half a lemon 
3 tablespoons sour cream 
1 egg 
4 English muffins 
4 leaves romaine 
1 small tomato, sliced 
Combine tuna, bread crumbs, green onion, parsley, garlic, salt, pepper, lemon, sour cream, and egg, and mix well with your hands. Form into 4 patties (they will be wet), place on a greased baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes at 400 degrees F. Serve the burgers on toasted English muffins with romaine and sliced tomato. Spread additional sour cream on each burger, if desired.
