Salmon Cakes with Veggie Stix by Shonda     Print this Recipe

Photos

Equipment

Medium skillet, mixing bowl, resealable bag and rolling pin or food processor

Prep Time

15 minutes

Number of Servings

2 to 4 depending on ages

Instructions

  1. 16 oz canned salmon

    Drain it well.
  2. 1 egg (free range if possible)

  3. 1/2 cup finely crushed Veggie Stix by Good Health Natural Foods

    Place about 1 cup of Veggie Stix in resealable bag and with rolling pin crush them to fine crumbs.
  4. 1 tsp extra virgin olive oil

  5. 1/2 tsp garlic powder

  6. 1/2 tsp sea salt (optional)

  7. 1/4 tsp pepper or a dash of cayenne (or to taste)

    In a mixing bowl, mix all ingredients until well blended. Then form into small patties. Place patties into a heated, lightly greased skillet and cook for 3 to 4 minutes on each side until golden brown and a little crispy. Serve warm.

Options

Mix in fresh or dried parsley for added nutrients without much added taste. Try adding 1/4 tsp dill and 1/4 cup minced onion.  You can serve them plain as a main dish for breakfast, lunch or dinner.  They are great on top of green salads.  Add one to a whole grain roll with lettuce and tomato for a delicious sandwich. Try a dollop of sour cream as a topping.  Or make your own "tartar sauce" by mixing a bit of Greek yogurt with all-natural pickle relish.   Use a food processor to crush the Veggie Stix.

Note: if you use the Annie's Roasted Garlic Extra Virgin Olive Oil, then leave out the garlic powder (unless you want extra garlic taste!)
