These are so good, frugal and easy and taste fancy enough for company…..and an easy way to get children to eat fish!
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
2 7.5 oz. cans salmon, do not drain!
1 egg, beaten
1/3 c. mayo
1 tbsp mustard
1 c. grated cheese (what have you…cheddar or swiss)
1/4 c. finely chopped walnuts
3/4 c. fine dry breadcrumbs
crushed cracker crumbs ( I save the broken/smashed crackers in the bottom of bags for this purpose).
Mash salmon including juices, in a large bowl. Stir in egg,mayo, mustard, cheese, nuts and blend well. Add just enough breadcrumbs to form a mixture you can shape into 3/4 in balls.
Roll each ball in cracker crumbs.
Bake on lightly grease baking sheet for 10 min.
Serve hot.
Makes about 5 dozen.
