Salmon Cakes

When you are craving crab cakes, but the budget doesn’t allow it what’s a girl to do? Salmon cakes! This recipe uses wild caught canned Alaskan salmon so it’s super budget friendly.

We all know we are supposed to eat fish several times a week and that we should only eat wild caught salmon so this recipe is an excellent way to accomplish that.

My personal preference is to only eat wild caught Alaskan salmon, not labeled Atlantic as it is farmed, and not labeled farmed.


Salmon Cakes

3 6 oz. cans Wild Caught Canned Salmon
1 shallot minced
1/2 red bell pepper finely diced
1/4 cup mayo
1 t dry mustard
1 t dill
2 eggs
3/4 cup bread crumbs
Salt and pepper

Mix all ingredients and form into equal size cakes and sauté.



Tarter Sauce

1 cup real mayonnaise
1 T finely diced shallot
2 T pickle relish
1 t lemon juice
2 t dill
Fresh ground pepper

Mix all ingredients.

Enjoy!
