seafood essentials: sweet potato salmon patties
I made these sweet-potato salmon patties the other evening and they were really good. Really not much of a fuss to assemble… Pretty much easy/peasy. I tried them three ways: One by themselves with a good dipping sauce, on a bed of wild rice, and finally as a stuffing for some brown button mushrooms. Yummy stuff. So, you ready… Let’s get into the kitchen.
