Salmon Cakes

This is a simple recipe that is quick, and uses very convenient canned salmon.  Canned salmon is a lot cheaper than fresh, and is packed with heart healthy omega threes.

1-14 or 15 oz can of salmon
2 eggs
1/2 cup of bread crumbs
4 tablespoons finely chopped red pepper
4 tablespoons of finely chopped onion
Seasoning of your choice

Crumble the salmon into a small dish.  Add the eggs, chopped red pepper, and chopped onion.  Add seasoning your prefer (I go through my cupboard and throw in whatever sounds good)  Mix well.  This is going to be pretty soupy.  Mix in bread crumbs so that excess moisture is absorbed.  Divide and pat into 8-10 cakes.

In a hot skillet coated with oil, add salmon cakes.  Cook on each side until golden brown, and serve while hot.

I like to eat mine with cheap yellow mustard, or with a dollop of honey mustard.
