Don't you love a girl who likes to fish?
My friend just got back from Alaska and brought back 50 lbs of fresh caught salmon.
We offered to split the fee's and she's sharing her catch with us!! YUM!
So, of course I had to make salmon cakes. Really easy to make and they freeze really well. The whole family loves them cold or warm.


2 lbs of salmon tossed in OO and baked at 400* for 15-20 minutes depending on the thickness of the filet-I left the skin on for a treat for our dog
let the salmon cool while you are preparing the other ingredients in a large bowl
1/2 c breadcrumbs
1/3c parsley, dill or whatever herbs are available in the garden
1/4c mayo
1/4c dijon
2 eggs
2TBS fresh lemon juice
1/2 yellow onion minced
S & P to taste
Add in the salmon and brake up with a fork, mix well, form salmon cakes
line your baking sheet with parchment
bake at 400* for 20-30 minutes or until golden brown
We serve over salad or Quinoa

Thanks Salmon people and the girl who loves to fish:)
