Ruth's Salmon Croquettes

Submitted by Lynn S.

"Moist in the middle, crispy on the outside... simply delicious. My MIL (Ruth) made this for my husband when he was younger; he loved them then and is equally as fond of them now. My son even loves them and he hates fish. This recipe is a great way for my family to get their Omega 3 fatty acids and a nice way to incorporate fish into my weekly menu without a lot of complaints : )"
