I made this Tuna Burgers with Avocado and Corn with my mom not long after I returned from the U.S. permanently (or so I thought at that time!) I missed burgers so much and saw this wonderful recipe on the magazine that I happened to flip through and told my mom we should try and made this and so we did. There is nothing better than a home made burger. A healthy one too!! Now, I made it and let hubby tried it. He loves it! 🙂 He called it a “Gourmet Healthy Burger”
