Seafood

Salmon Croquettes

Ingredients
1 TBSP olive oil
1 (14 1/2oz) can pink salmon, drained
1 celery stalk, minced
4 scallions, thinly sliced
1 egg
1 TBSP snipped Dill
1/2 Cup wheat Germ (Count!)
4 cups mixed salad greens
1/2 lemon, cut into wedges

Directions
1- In a large nonstick skillet, heal the oil. Place the salmon in a medium bowl; pick out the skin, then mash the bones with a fork. Mix in the celery, scallions, egg, and dill; form into 12 log-shaped croquettes.
Place the wheat germ on a sheet of wax paper; roll croquettes in the wheat germ.

2- Gently place the croquettes in the skillet; cook until lightly golden, 3-4 minutes on each side. Serve on the salad greens, with the lemon on the side.

Extra: Mix 1/2 cup FF mayo with 1 TBSP prepared horseradish; add a bit of dill and lemon zest for color and flavor. Use the mixture with the croquettes.
