The weather is getting warmer and all I can think about is entertaining outdoors!
And al fresco parties rhyme with fresh and delicious party food and appetizers, like these delicious tuna fishcakes with a side of refreshing mango salsa!
These tuna fishcakes are one of these go-to recipes in my party-hostess repertoire because it's always a hit with kids and grown-ups alike. It's kinda the perfect diner party entree, main or served as a tasty appetizers from now until summer, alongside my delicious mango salsa!
Tuna is a product we love and use often at my house, so buying from a sustainable source is also hugely important! This is why I was delighted to partner with Wild Selections to use their White Albacore Tuna in Water for this recipe.
Not only does their tuna taste great, but Wild Selections have a unique commitment to sustainability and partnerships with Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) and World Wildlife Fund (WWF).
It all begins with where Wild Selections sources its wild-caught seafood - only from ocean areas that have been certified sustainable to the Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) Standard – the world’s leading certification program for wild-caught, sustainable seafood for the past 20 years.
This assessment and certification of oceans areas by MSC ensures that fish stocks are healthy, well managed and plentiful, and each product they make is traceable to the ocean where it was caught so you know where your food comes from and can feel good about it!
Plus, I was happy to know that all Wild Selections products use simple ingredients and are non-GMO Project Verified, and they also donates 13 cents from the sale of each can to support World Wildlife Fund’s efforts to protect marine life and expand sustainable fishing practices!
This is all about paying forward so we take care of our oceans for generations to come. What's not to love?! 😍
