Tuna balls with lemon and parsley by Fitness Recipes

Note: – I served it as a snack with a dip. The dip is just natural low fat yoghurt wit parsley and fresh black pepper.

Ingredients (4 servings = 16 balls):
-300 g tuna (canned, natural) drained
… – 20 g pine nuts (natural or you can roast them in a non-stick frying pan for a minute, without using oil)
- a bit of lemon juice (or zest)
- a bit of chopped parsley leaves
- 40g fine oats (or blend normal oats)
- 2 eggs , beaten
- fresh black pepper

Directions:
- Mix all ingredients together with your hands until completely combined.
- Roll 16 balls (about the size of a golf ball)
- Heat up a non-stick frying pan (low heat). Spray some non-stick baking spray and fry the tuna balls for about 8 minutes. Turning every minute.
- Or put them in a pre-heated oven (180°C) for about 15 minutes.
- They will be a bit soft when they are warm. When they cool of they get a more firm texture.
