That was fun. Exploring AIs, I popped this recipe into Sider.ai and asked “How can I make this recipe healthier?”

I got back:
No Fail Tuna Patties 3/4 cup mayonnaise
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon salt
2 cans tuna
2 eggs
1 cup cornflakes crumbs

No Fail Tuna Patties 3/4 cup mayonnaise 1 teaspoon garlic powder 1 teaspoon salt 2 cans tuna 2 eggs 1 cup cornflakes crumbs

How can I make this healthier (healthiest)?

Sider Fusion
To make your No Fail Tuna Patties healthier, consider the following modifications:

  1. Replace mayonnaise: Use Greek yogurt or avocado instead of mayonnaise to reduce calories and add protein. You might want to use about 1/4 to 1/2 cup.
  2. Reduce salt: Consider using low-sodium tuna and cutting back on the salt, or use herbs and spices for flavor instead (like black pepper, paprika, or lemon zest).
  3. Increase vegetables: Add finely chopped vegetables like bell peppers, onions, or spinach to boost fiber and nutrients.
  4. Change the crumbs: Instead of cornflakes, use whole grain bread crumbs or oat flour. You could even use ground oats for a gluten-free option.
  5. Use egg whites: If you’re looking to reduce fat further, you can use 1 whole egg plus 1-2 egg whites instead of 2 whole eggs.
  6. Baking option: Instead of frying, bake the patties in the oven to reduce fat content. Brush with a bit of olive oil or cooking spray to help them crisp up.

Revised RecipeHealthier Tuna Patties

  • 1/4 to 1/2 cup Greek yogurt or mashed avocado
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Reduced salt (or omitted)
  • 2 cans tuna (preferably low-sodium)
  • 1 whole egg + 1-2 egg whites
  • 1 cup whole grain bread crumbs (or ground oats)
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped vegetables (like bell peppers, onions, or spinach)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a bowl, mix the yogurt/avocado, garlic powder, and seasonings.
  3. Add the drained tuna, eggs, and bread crumbs, mixing well.
  4. Fold in the chopped vegetables.
  5. Form into patties and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  6. Bake for about 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and cooked through.

This version maintains the flavor while enhancing the nutritional profile. Would you like more tips or ideas?

By the 7 Heaven’s I do so love AIs.
