The flavor was okay. It could definately using some spicing up. My kids didn't like this at all, though I was rather proud that my 5 year old choked it down. My 2 year old daughter snubbed them immediately and my 6 year old took one bit and made a rather unpleasent face. (He doesn't like tomatoes anyway) I myself, thought that the consistancy of the mixture was blah...It turned out mushy not crispy and I had my pan super heated. I might be able to get past the somewhat bland taste by adding some of the ingrediants other reviews have added, but I couldn't handle the texture at all. I ended up throwing the rest of the batch out. I may or may not try this again, but if I do, I think I will definately add other ingrediants and an egg; maybe that will help.

The cakes taste pretty good but are they supposed to turn out crispy? Mine ended up being mushy.

These are amazing. I've heard saltines are pretty bad for your body, but I can justify these. I accidentally used the canned tomatoes with green peppers in them, but it turned out great. thanks for the recipe!

They were ok. Not everyone liked them. I didn't find they were firm enough for my liking. Perhaps an addition of something would help. Perhaps more breadcrums, crackers and an egg or two.

I was looking for something quick and affordable to make with what I had in the house. I didn't know what to think of this? It kind of reminded me of a tomato crab cake. I used a mini hamburger mold and made 7 patties. I liked the crispiness on the outside, but thought the cracker was still kind of mushy on the inside. Overall, though, not bad for common cubard ingredients.

EXCELLENT! Who would of thought that tomato cakes would actually taste great. And not like eating a tomato raw, it is actually delicious. :-D

I've made these three times now- and have loved them each time. This is a great, light and fresh app or side with dinner. I have found the smaller you can cut the tomato and onion, the better. Also, I prefer to use fresh tomato- so I can't vouch for the canned version.
