One of my health goals is to eat more omega 3 fats...and thus to eat more salmon. But, salmon can be expensive, especially the good stuff. This is a very tasty recipe for canned salmon, which is very economical.
Serves 3
Ingredients:
1 can of salmon
2 Tablespoons of mayonnaise
1 Tablespoon of mustard
4 green onions, chopped
1 clove of garlic, chopped
Squeeze of lemon juice
1/4 cup Italian Bread Crumbs (or crushed crackers, etc).
Crushed red pepper flakes (to taste)
Bag of frozen buttered brussel sprouts(steam in bag)
Bag of frozen spring vegetables (steam in bag)
Take the salmon out of the can and remove the bones and skin. Place into a bowl. Add the green onion, garlic, bread crumbs, and squeeze of lemon juice. Toss to combine. Add 1 Tablespoon each of mayonnaise and mustard and combine. We are using this combination as a binder for the salmon. Add more if necessary to hold the ingredients together. Form the salmon into patties a little smaller than the palm of your hand. I usually get 6 to 8 salmon patties.
Heat some oil in a pan over medium high heat. Add the salmon patties to the pan. Be careful not to overload the pan because you need room to flip the patties. After about 4 minutes, check to see if the patties have browned. If so, flip and cook until the other side is browned.
While the patties are cooking, heat the frozen vegetables according to directions.
For a great sauce to top your patties, combine 1 Tablespoon mayonnaise with 1 Tablespoon mustard and a squeeze of lemon juice.
