I love these! I noticed that the smaller packages of salmon I purchased didn't have this recipe, so I thought I would check and see if someone else had posted -thanks! :) They are really easy to make and I sometimes just mix all of the breadcrumbs into them and then drop big spoonfuls into the hot pan instead of messing with patting them out. My kids love them, and even my husband who turns green at the mention of "salmon cakes" (due to some horrible ones he had to consume during his childhood) likes them. I bet you could even sub greek yogurt for some or all of the mayo to make it healthier.

Well it is December 20, 2009 and DH and I are sitting on our lanai having a cocktail. Just got done with eating some chicken wings, courtesy of a Recipezaar recipe. They were delicious, of course.
<br>The picture above is yours truly with one of our two dogs, Fritz a Cairn Terrier. Our other pooch is Kelly, a Miniature Schnauzer. We will try and post a picture of her at a later date.
<br>I should have made my name Naturelovers, because my DH is enjoying this site as much as I do!
<br>We are retired and enjoy the outdoors here in FL, like boating, fishing, beaches and gardening.
<br>Between us we have 6 children, 8 grandchildren and 2 great-grandsons and 1 great-granddaughter on the way. I have always enjoyed cooking and Recipezaar has really opened up new horizons.
<br>I am well noted for finding a great recipe that is a big hit and then losing it. I'm hoping by joining Recipezaar, I will lose that reputation. I remember one recipe, about 48 years ago, and yes I still remember it. I found the recipe in a local newspaper and it is gone. It was for a German dish, sauerbraten, not to vinegary, no gingersnaps and served with dumplings. Oh my, was it good, but alas, gone.
