I'm sure most families have a few cans of tuna stacked in the pantry. But how many of us have canned salmon on hand? Canned salmon not only has the same nutritional value as its fresh counterpart, but it's also an economical and convenient alternative. Today, I'm going to show you a recipe that is super easy to follow to incorporate this canned goodie. My kids really like croquettes, whether they're made with tuna or potatoes. They can eat them with their hands and dip them in their favorite sauce. That's why I've added a new recipe to my collection: salmon croquettes. They're ready in about 45 minutes, and the price is unbeatable at about $6 from start to finish! I recommend doubling the recipe to serve four, since I can almost guarantee most will eat more than 4 or 5 in one sitting. MORE + LESS -

To give this dish some kick, add 1-2 tablespoons of hot pepper sauce or 1 finely chopped jalapeño pepper to the salmon mix before forming the croquettes.
