This is great with a creamed pea sauce, which is basically a white sauce with peas. I think it is from a old Betty Crocker Cookbook from the 1950's. I have tweaked it to make it mine. I like to serve mashed potatoes with it. (Just an observation: The original recipe calls for 16 oz. cans of salmon. The ones in my pantry are 14.75 oz. Just like everything else, the sizes are getting smaller.)

I saw this recipe and thought of a salmon croquette recipe my husbands grandmother used to make. The taste is similar, but without the deep frying. This loaf had a nice, delicate salmon taste. This would pair nicely with rice and a green veggie for a tasty dinner or luncheon meal. Next time I may add a sauce with this (for example, thinned down cream of mushroom soup). I will definitely be making this again!
