----------------------

SALMON CAKES (yields 1 serving = 4 cakes)

3 oz skinless/boneless Pink Salmon (I use the pouch - with water)

1/8 cup Red Bell Pepper - cubed very small

1/4 cup Onion - cubed very small

1 Tbsp Scallion - minced

1 Egg White - beaten (or 3 Tbsp. Egg Whites in container)

2 Tbsp Bread Crumbs

1 Tbsp chopped Cilantro stems

Oil Spray

Salt & Pepper

Combine all ingredients well.

Mold into 4 balls - they will feel a bit loose - that's OK. They will tighten up once cooked. Handle with care, though!

Spray oven-safe pan.

Place cakes in pan - not touching each other.

Spray a teensy bit of oil on each cake.

Cook at 425 degree Fahrenheit for 20-25 minutes (or until they feel a bit 'toasty' on the outside).

This recipe uses the pouch salmon, but you can certainly make it with fresh salmon! It will taste much better if you do.
