If you are looking for a way to get more salmon into your family’s diet, Baked Salmon Croquettes are a delicious option. You can even make these with tuna.

Not too long ago, a local store was going out of business and I was able to get canned salmon for half-price! Needless to say, I stockpiled and bought all they had!

I like to include fish in my meal planning but to be honest, I have to buy so much to feed my hungry crew that it is not nice to my budget!

Baked Salmon Croquettes are a budget friendly way to get fish on the menu without breaking the bank.

A few of my other favorite fish recipes are Salmon Ball (which is great for entertaining), Grilled Tomato Basil Fish, Salmon Mousse and Tuna and Pea Salad ( a wonderful summer meal).

I love the fact that they are baked but you can also give them a little more color and crispness in a frying pan. Normally, mine go from the oven to the table but I’m just saying, for that little something extra…

Top Tip For Making Salmon Croquettes

• As you look at the recipe, please notice that it calls for the mixture to be chilled. It really does make a difference. Just plan to mix them up the night before and then all you have to do is shape and bake!

Ways To Serve These Salmon Croquettes;

• Serve with my Easy quinoa salad
• Serve with Feta salad with toasted pecans and raisins
• My homemade mayo is so yummy
• Yogo-Mayo dressing would be great with these
