Health and fertility benefits of Pan Fried Tuna Patty

Tuna is great for a high protein diet as it has 33 grams of protein within its housing, with no pesky carbohydrates to worry about. In addition to this, tuna contains B vitamins and vitamin D, both of which are vital to fighting back against PCOS. Nuts are a natural source of Inositol, a derivative of Vitamin B (which is often prescribed in the form of supplements for women with PCOS). Inositol can effectively control the symptoms of PCOS by reducing insulin resistance and improving insulin sensitivity. Walnuts are low on the glycemic index. What’s more, they also lower the glycemic index of other foods that you eat in conjunction with these nuts. Any kind of nuts provide a healthy source of fat and a great way to encourage PCOS weight loss.

Ingredients

1 (5 ounce) can tuna packed in water, drained
1 egg
1/2 stalk celery, chopped
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
2 tablespoons chopped walnuts
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley, or to taste
1 teaspoon chopped fresh dill, or to taste
1 tablespoon butter
1/4 cup shredded Cheddar cheese

Instructions

Stir tuna, egg, celery, mayonnaise, walnuts, parsley, and dill together in a bowl until evenly combined. Form mixture into two patties.
