Growing up my mom made salmon patties and now they are something that I crave. In an effort to listen to my body and give it the nutrients it is asking for, this salmon recipe was created.

Salmon Benefits

Salmon is full of nutrients and includes lots of healthy fats. It includes nutrients like selenium that are beneficial for your thyroid gland and Omega-3 healthy fats that keep your brain and body functioning properly. I would always prefer fresh but canned, from a well-trusted brand, can be a good and cheaper option too. Other nutrients found in salmon include B6, B12, potassium, protein, and antioxidants. When you are choosing salmon, whether canned or fresh make sure to look for wild caught.

Salmon Patty Ingredients

This recipe is so simple because it includes very basic ingredients. I already had all of them in my pantry and they are staples for lots of our meals. All you will need for the salmon patty recipe is a can of wild-caught salmon, eggs, onion, lemon juice, parsley, seasonings, salt and pepper and oil for the pan. Pro tip, the smaller you cut the onions the better the salmon patties will stay together.
