Introduction

Chia seeds are supposed to be one of nature's super foods with 3100 mg of Omega-3 and 1050mg of Omega-6 and high in dietary fiber. They are recommended for diabetics. Although I am not diabetic, I use diabetic recipes for great low-carb choices. This recipe is modified from a dlife recipe. I only use Alaska wild caught salmon, and I drain it and remove the skin pieces so the numbers I've put in may not be totally accurate.

Number of Servings: 6

Ingredients

    1 Can of wild-caught Alaska pink salmon
    .25 Cup Panko bread crumbs
    2 Eggland's Best Large Eggs, lightly beaten
    1.5 Teaspoons Old Bay Seasoning (or other seasoning of your choice)
    2 Tbls. (28 grams) Nature's Answer Chia Seeds

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Drain salmon, reserving liquid to use if needed, and remove skin. Mix all of the ingredients together in a bowl. If mixture is too dry, add a little bit of the reserved liquid from the salmon to moisten. (You could add oil, but it will add to the fat and calories.) Discard remaining reserved liquid.

Form mixture into 6 equal size patties. Cover the surface of a baking dish with Reynold's new non-stick aluminum foil (expensive unless you find it on sale and have a coupon, but it works better than pan spray) or spray the bottom of a baking dish with pan spray. Place the patties in the dish and bake for about 20 minutes, depending on your oven, until golden brown.

You can pan-fry these patties in cooking oil over medium-high heat for 8 minutes on each side. This will increase the fat and calories of the dish.

Serving Size: 6 medium patties

Number of Servings: 6

    These were great. I used 2 egg whites in place of the eggs to cut the calories even further. I added 2 TBSB fresh dill and lots of pepper. Served them with honey mustard on the side. And they are just so nutritious with the chia seed in them. The chia gives them a nice texture too! - 4/22/14

    Sorry, I haven't been on this site in a while. The salmon is the 14.75 oz. size. I have also added drained and picked over crab meat from the meat department a couple of time and my dh really liked it that way.

    These salmon cakes were very good and easy to make. I think that I'd like to add a little onion and lemon juice the next time I make them. - 6/30/15

    Added a little minced onion Didn't have panko, used Italian bread crumbs & I did remove the bones. 1/3 cup measure made 6 patties. Cooked in toaster oven & turned over half way Stirred 2 Tbl non fat sour cream with diced dill pickle, enough for 2 patties 40 cals. I think a bit of vinegar next time - 5/14/15

    Love it - satisfies that fish cake or crab cake craving and I baked these in my FlavorWave, no preheating, no using a big oven just for 6 little patties - thanks for sharing ! - 6/19/13
