Ingredients

1 14.75 ounce can salmon, drained (with or without bones and skin)

1 slice whole wheat bread, torn into small pieces

1 tablespoon light mayonnaise

1 tablespoon lemon juice

2 eggs, lightly beaten

1 medium stalk celery, minced

1 medium carrot, grated

1 medium onion, minced

1 teaspoon olive oil OR vegetable oil

Instructions

  1. Before you begin, wash your hands, surfaces, utensils, tops of cans, and vegetables.
  2. In a medium bowl, break up the salmon. If canned salmon has bones, mash bones with a fork until smooth. Remove the salmon skin if desired.
  3. Add torn-up bread, light mayonnaise, lemon juice, eggs, celery, carrot, and onion to bowl and mix well.
  4. Firmly press about 1/2 cup of the mixture into a 1-inch thick patty, make 5 patties. Put on plate.
  5. Coat large frying pan in oil and heat on medium heat.
  6. Place the patties in frying pan and cook until they are golden brown, about 5 to 7 minutes on each side.

Tips

  • No salmon? Use canned tuna or mackerel instead.
  • No canned salmon? Use 1 to 1½ cups cooked salmon.
  • Use ¼ cup dry bread crumbs or cracker crumbs instead of sliced bread.
  • Make your own bread crumbs from stale bread.
  • Try other finely chopped vegetables such as bell pepper or zucchini.
