Salivating over these Salmon Patties

I’m always looking for creative ways to use leftovers. It usually involves opening the fridge to take stock of what’s left from our Shabbat meals.

This past Shabbat we went to our son and daughter-in-law’s so I didn’t have any leftovers!

But I found 2 salmon fillets from Thursday dinner and a garlic almond mixture that I had on hand to toss with green beans before I roast them.

So I put together the salmon and the nut mixture with an egg and some Galilee Green Olive Oil and turned the whole mixture into the most fabulous salmon patties!

I served it with a salad and baked sweet potatoes drizzled with Galilee Green Olive Oil and sprinkled with salt and pepper.

You could use canned salmon, tuna or any leftover cooked fish. The trick to keeping these patties moist is the Galilee Green Olive Oil.
