Well Deserved Reward.


Hard work sure builds up an appetite! That's why after my Sweetie mowed the lawn, I wanted to fix him a nice lunch. I chose some of his favorites, Salmon Patties, Mac n' Cheese, and Chocolate Chip Cookies.
I always have the makings for Salmon Patties on hand. I take one can of Pink Salmon and pour the liquid into a mixing bowl. I take the Salmon and remove all the skin, fat, and round bones (the little pin bones are okay). Add the cleaned fish to the liquid in the bowl, break in one egg and mix with a fork breaking up any big chunks. Add about 16-20 crumbled saltines depending on how much liquid there is (you should be able to form patties). Fry patties in oil about 350 degrees, turning once, until golden brown. Drain on paper towels and serve with Cocktail or Tartar sauce. Serve these on a bun for a great sandwich alternative.

I loved your easy recipe for salmon cakes. I use lemon or make a lemon cream sauce. Make a rue then add lemon serve. Thanks for sharing.

Sounds like it is well worth mowing
the lawn at your house! What a great way to reward someone you love foe a job well done. I love-
love the addition of pictures. Keep
up the good work. I just made homemade lemonade as a treat--I guess I am behind the curve on food
rewarding. I will practice :) Mary
