Ingredients

Salmon Patties

  • 14 ounces cooked fresh salmon or canned pink salmon
  • 1 cup almond meal
  • ½ yellow onion grated
  • 1 small zucchini grated (about 1 cup)
  • 2 green onions thinly chopped
  • ¼ cup fresh chives chopped
  • 2 tablespoons fresh dill chopped
  • 2 eggs whisked
  • ½ cup parmesan cheese grated
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper

Creamy Lemon Herb Dip

  • ¾ cup Greek yogurt
  • 1/3 cup mayonnaise
  • 3 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons lemon zest
  • 2 tablespoons fresh chives chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh dill chopped
  • 1 to ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

Salmon Patties

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Mix all the ingredients except the salmon together in a large bowl until combined and well-mixed. Add the cooked salmon and gently stir it together to maintain some of the flakes of the salmon (it has a nicer texture if the salmon isn’t in teeny tiny pieces).
  2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside. Use a ¼ cup measurer to scoop up some of the salmon mixture and form a 2 ½ to 3-inch wide patty (you can grease your hands with cooking oil to prevent the mixture from sticking).
  3. Place the patties on the tray, then bake in the oven until slightly puffy and lightly golden around the edges, about for 20 to 25 minutes.
  4. Remove from the oven and serve alongside the Creamy Lemon Herb Dip.
