Tuna Cakes

This a new family favorite. I served these yummy cakes with jasmine rice and mixed vegetables.

Here is the original recipe.

I added an egg and eliminated the shredded carrot.

Sausage Breakfast Braid

12 oz Breakfast Sausage
1 small Onion, chopped
1/2 of a Green Pepper, chopped
1 Garlic Clove, minced
4 oz Cream Cheese, cubed
4 Eggs
1/2 cup Cheddar Cheese, shredded
1 tube(8oz)refrigerated Crescent Rolls
1 Egg, lightly beaten

In a large skillet, cook the sausage, onion, green pepper and garlic until meat is no longer pink and vegetables are tender. Add cream cheese. Cook and stir over low heat until cheese is melted. Add eggs. Stir and cook for 1-2 minutes.

Unroll crescent dough on a greased baking sheet; seal perforations. Roll into a 12x10 rectangle. Spoon sausage mixture to within 3 in. of the long sides and 1 in. of ends.

Sprinkle cheddar cheese on the sausage mixture.

On each long side,cut 3/4 in. wide strips 3 in. into center. Starting at one end, fold alternately strips at an angle, forming a braid.

Brush dough with egg. Bake at 350* for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
