Tuna Cakes

My wife rocks. Last night in a sleep deprived delirium she came up with an amazing recipe and had to make them today. She started with one can of tuna. Nothing fancy, just good chunk light tuna. Next she added 4 green olives diced, 1 oz Gouda cheese finely diced, and then some Tony Chachere's creole seasoning and salt to taste. Mix in cooked rice and 2 eggs  the rice is kind of a judgment call. Mix in enough till it forms a nice patty and slides off of your hand easily, about 1 to 1.25 cups. Melt 2 Tbs butter in a cast iron skillet. Cook till golden brown and delicious.
