  You could make this more healthy without loss of taste by using unsalted canned salmon, use ground red pepper instead of old bay, use 2 egg whites instead of an egg and skip the mayo or use low fat, use whole wheat bread crumbs and use cooking spray instead of oil. - 7/20/09

  I broil them in my toaster oven. Works as well as i spray with butter or olive oil spray. Saves on calories and I don't usually dredge in flour but keep plain. - 7/22/09

  SOMEONE WROTE THAT THERE WERE TOO MANY BONES IN THE CANNED SALMON.
  
  THAT USED TO BOTHER ME TOO B/C MY MOTHER DIDN'T DEAL WITH THEM..
  
  BUT I LEARNED TO FIND ALL OF THE BONES AND SMASH THEM WITH MY FORK. THEN I MIX THEM IN WITH THE SALMON B/C IT REALLY ADDS CALCIUM AND PROBABLY FISH OILS.

  1 cup to add to ricotta, 1 egg[beaten]
  1 can salmon
  1 small onion [chopped]
  combine
  then bread outside parmasan cheese
  bake or fry

  In response to LAUREN145: Old Bay is a spice that is full of flavor. Gives your food a nice kick. It's a tad spicy and very strong. You might want to use a little at first because it may overpower your food. I'm from Maryland and we use it on all our seafood recipes especially blue crabs..YUM - 8/7/09

  I WHIRL THE CANNED SALMON WITH EGG IN BLENDER TO GRIND UP THE BONES - THEY JUST DISAPPEAR & TEXTURE IS MORE EVEN. HELPS YOUR JOINTS! - 2/8/10

  I make my salmon patties with canned salmon, add 1 egg, 1/4 finely chopped onion, and I use whole grain crackers as the filler for more fiber. Cook in a tiny bit of olive oil, lower in calories and my family loves them. - 10/8/09

  I absolutely loved this recipe!!!! I am NOT a fish eater and once I got over the smell of the salmon (to me it smelled like cat food! ha!) I put it all together and boy was it YUMMY!! Didn't even taste like fish to me and that's a GOOD thing! Used cayenne, cilantro and some chives to help season! - 1/28/10

  I made these using fresh salmon steamed till flaky then cooled. I also used roasted garlic and peppers in the place of the old bay because I didn't have any. I also topped it with Cholula hot sauce when I was done cooking, and garnished them with avocado. They were simply stupendous!! Great recipe. - 12/29/10

  My mother used to make these with canned salmon with bones. Don't worry about the bones, they're soft. You won't notice them. They weren't that soft and I did notice. Took me years to eat fresh salmon again and I won't touch canned. - 6/26/19

  Love salmon patties! Serve with salad, rice, veggie, lemon wedge &/or tartar sauce. No Old Bay (too much sodium), used minced onions, parsley, and dill, garlic powder and lemon pepper, no mayo and no dredging in flour. A little healthier for us.
