Preparation

Set oven to 375 degrees.
Prepare a greased 13 x 9-inch baking pan, or any size to fit the tuna balls.
In a bowl, combine the tuna, egg, breadcrumbs, mayo, onion, parsley, almonds, mustard, poultry seasoning, salt, pepper and fresh garlic, or garlic powder (if using), do NOT add the crushed Corn Flakes cereal; combine well.
Shape into 40 balls (for cocktail size) or larger balls, any size you desire.
Roll completely and evenly in the crushed Corn Flakes cereal to coat well.
Dip the coated balls completely in melted butter.
Place on a baking sheet/pan.
Bake for 10 minutes (for the cocktail size), and 20-25 minutes (depending on how large you make the balls) for the larger size, DON'T OVERBAKE, these do not take long to to get done.
