Pretty Peas and Salmon

 Walking the walk and talking the talk.

If you followed along here the past couple of weeks you will remember *or perhaps not*, that I had my annual physical and from the blood results made the decision, along with my doctor's prompting, to eat differently.

Turkey sausage burgers made right here at home have been high on my list of snackaroonies.

I keep a plate of them in the fridge and will be making another batch of them today since they are GONE!

Hubby decided that salmon patties would also be a good thing, and he totally enjoys salmon

So, salmon was on Saturday's grocery list and we found a great recipe for the patties HERE.

Of course we fudged a bit since we didn't have fresh parsley and used dry, and we didn't have dry mustard so we used wet.

Creamed peas over salmon patties was a meal my mother made when I was growing up, and to be honest with you, as a child I could not eat peas.  They would literally gag me.

But I've grown into a VERY sophisticated pea loving adult over the years and veggies are now a food group completely and utterly appreciated in this house.

Hubby still turns his nose up at peas, so he had a different veggie with his salmon patties... on the side and not on top.

 I am recommending this salmon pattie recipe from Allrecipes.com.

We used fresh Atlantic salmon since we don't eat the farm grown salmon.

Totally delicious!

Enjoy, all you fish lovers!!
