Old-Fashioned Salmon Patties
These are the patties in the container. Golden rounds stacked, herbs on the surface, and one broken open to show the pink salmon inside. No breadcrumbs. No sugar. One serving is about 210 calories, 22g protein, and 2g net carbs. The full stack is the picture, not one plate.Use canned salmon, drained. An egg holds them. A spoon of almond flour keeps the shape without the carbs of breadcrumbs. Onion and parsley go in the mix. Pan-fry in a little oil until both sides are gold and the centers are set.Twenty minutes covers the mix and the fry. They should be crisp on the outside and soft in the middle, the way the broken one looks.

The Secret to the Hold
Drain the salmon well. Wet salmon falls apart in the pan. An egg and a spoon of almond flour is enough to hold them. Too much almond flour and they dry out. Press them firm before they go in the oil so the edges stay together.Prep Time: 10 mins
