Salmon Patties & Salad


I just made Salmon Patties for the first time a few days ago. The kids and I liked them so much we all wanted them again tonight for dinner. I decided to serve them on a bed of leafy greens with a homemade vinagrette dressing. I want to share both recipes with you.

DIRECTIONS

Drain and reserve liquid from salmon. Mix egg, onion, bread crumbs and salmon together.
Make into patty's. If mixture is too dry to form into patties, add reserved liquid from salmon.
In a frying pan, heat olive oil. Place patties in pan. Brown on each side, turning gently.
Drain on paper towels and serve.
