I have been making these tasty salmon patties for many years. My family especially likes the lemon-dill sauce with them. They are good with or without the sauce. Yummy... They are really good the next day cold on a bun with lettuce and a slice of tomato. If there are any left, that is... lol!! Hope you enjoy these as much as my family does.

Savory and satisfying, these salmon patties are perfect for your next brunch, party, or dinner! The creamy dill sauce on top makes for a wonderful presentation. For a lighter meal, you could serve these along side a simple tossed salad. So very easy to make!
