Salmon Cakes

1
can salmon ($2/can)  
/4 cup relish (about 10 cents)  
/4 cup mayonnaise (about 10 cents)  
diced carrot or celery stick (about 10 cents)  
One lemon (about 30 cents)  
1
/4 cup corn meal (about 10 cents)  
vegetable oil spray (negligible, about 10 cents?)  
This is quick and healthy. Combine salmon, relish, mayonnaise,  
carrot/celery. Zest the lemon and mix zest and juice of lemon with  
salmon mixture. Form into patties. I use this quick technique:  
Sprinkle a little corn meal in the bottom of a quarter cup measuring  
cup. Add salmon mixture almost to top. Top with more corn meal.  
You end up with about 10−12 perfectly sized, corn meal coated  
salmon cakes. Pan "fry" on medium to medium high about 2−3  
minutes per side. With a salad and a loaf of bread, a great meal.  
P.S. You can take the bones out of the canned salmon but I keep  
them in; they taste fine and provide calcium. A yummy way to get  
those healthy omega oils (from the salmon) in your diet.  
Total cost about $2.80 for entire recipe, 70 cents per person.
