Directions

    1. Place cauliflower florets into a microwave safe bowl with 2 Tbsp. water and microwave for 2 minutes. Allow to cool briefly, then place into your Vitamix Food Processor fitted with the Multi-Use blade.
    2. Pulse 5-6 times or until cauliflower has obtained a very fine, couscous-like texture. Empty cauliflower into cheesecloth or a strong paper towel, and wring out all excess moisture. This is necessary to ensure the patties will hold together.
    3. Place all remaining tuna patty ingredients into a bowl and mix together. Scoop golf-ball sized amounts of the batter and form small patties, placing on a dish and refrigerating for 15-20 minutes to firm up.
    4. While patties are chilling, combine all sauce ingredients in a small bowl and stir to incorporate.
    5. Set a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and spray with olive oil. Carefully place patties into the skillet and cook until golden brown on one side, about 2 minutes. Flip and cook an additional several minutes until patties are hot all the way through.
    6. Serve immediately with sauce if desired.
