We have been on the hunt for new ways to incorporate more protein into our diets lately. The people at our Weight Watchers meeting keep talking about protein being the key to weight loss because it makes your feel full. Since we started incorporating protein into each meal, I can tell you that I definitely feel more full. The feeling of being famished has completely gone away.

I have been looking for ways to make my life easier by incorporating easy to make lean protein dishes into my life. I don’t want to spend all day prepping when I have so much work to get done during the day. I decided to make tuna patties with Bumble Bee® Solid White Albacore Tuna. Seeing is believing and Bumble Bee® Solid White Albacore Tuna is quality you can see – the moment you open the can. With a firm texture, light color and fresh taste.
