I just picked up a can of salmon from BigLots and this recipe sounds just like the one my mother use to make. So guess what we're having for dinner 2night 
Thank you SouthernBell26

I don't care much for salmon. Even less for the canned kind. This recipe was absolutely unbelievable. Her sweetness wants to eat healthy. Salmon is on top of the list of must eat foods. This not only was edible, but tasted like a million stars. I made mine with the baked potato. Man, was it good! I'm not going to lose this recipe!! Thanks a bunch!

A really nice, simple salmon croquette recipe. I added 1 tsp dill weed and thought this added a lot of nice flavor. Also, I covered the croquettes in Panko (Japanese bread crumbs) instead of cracker crumbs. I found that the patty shape worked better than the croquette shape even though I used mashed potatoes. Excellent!
