Instructions
- 1
Drain the canned salmon well. Remove any large bones if desired (the soft bones are edible and a great calcium source; pick them out if you prefer smooth patties).
- 2
In a large bowl, combine the drained salmon, ground flaxseed, eggs, lemon juice, and dijon mustard. Mix thoroughly with a fork, breaking up the salmon as you go.
- 3
Let the mixture rest 5 minutes — the flaxseed will absorb moisture and help bind the patties.
- 4
Form the mixture into 8 equal patties, about 1/2 inch thick.
- 5
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Lightly grease if needed.
- 6
Cook the patties for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown and heated through.
- 7
Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately with lemon wedges, or over greens.
