canned pink samlon?

I love salmon! Canned salmon makes quick and easy meals since it's already cooked.

I usually buy the 6 oz cans and make salmon cakes, 2 3oz ones. Add some seafood seasoning (I recommend Old Bay, but I don't know if that's just a Mid-Atlantic thing and you can't get it everywhere) with chopped onion & green peppers to the salmon, and mix it up. Form patties and cook them with either vegetable oil or some cooking spray until they're heated through and get a little brown on both sides. You could eat them just like that, or treat them like you would a hamburger and make a sandwich out of them.

You could also drain it really well and add it to a big salad with some type of vinaigrette dressing.

Drain it, and put it on wheat crackers with low fat cream cheese for a snack

I'm sure there are other things to do with it, but those are my favorites. Hope this helps, and by the way, you got me in the mood to make salmon cakes for dinner now haha.

There is a nice south beach (low carb and fat ) chowder recipe that uses canned salmon, skim milk and turnip in place of potatoes...you can probably find it online if you google it. It is surprisingly delicious, and I like my seafood (I'm from Cape Breton island).

mix with 1-2 egg whites and some bread crumbs and onions ..sorry I just wing it I dont have a recipe..make patties and bake them:drinker:

I do the same, its delicious, except mine is loaf style. Onions, garlic, bread or cracker crumbs-1/2-3/4 cup, eggs, 1/2 can of cream of celery or mushroom, 1 tblsp butter melted. this is all combined with a 14.5 oz can of "Double Q" wild alaskan salmon.

My wife makes curry with this canned salmon and I LOVE IT!!!!

Begin by preparing the salmon (remove bones and skin).

Use 1 tablespoon of canola or olive oil and heat until light colored smoke starts to rise. Reduce the heat. Then put in desired amount of onion, garlic, and some ginger. Add a teaspoon of curry spice and 1/4 teaspoon of turmeric. Cook mixture until onions and garlic are light brown. Next add 1 or 2 diced tomatoes and cook until they're soft.

Finally stir in the salmon, add some fresh chopped cilantro and let it simmer for a few minutes.

Serve with Basmati or Jasmin rice.

Caloric note: This isn't a whole lot of calories, but you'll have to enter the ingredients seperately to figure out the total content.

Cooking tips/notes: Make sure you do this in a well ventilated place (lots of smoke and tear-jerking smells). Add some hot Asian peppers or red pepper for some heat. I just love this stuff!!!!

My sister and I absolutely love Rachael Ray's salmon burger recipe using the Old Bay seasoning, an egg, seasoned bread crumbs (we use italian), parsley, etc. I'm sure you can find the recipe on her website. :happy:

I was wondering if there is a brand of salmon that has no skin or bones ? I love salmon patties but yucky skin and bones just gross me out. Thanks, Cindy

Thanks Queen! I'm going to add this to my shopping list! Cindy
