"Ready, Set, Cook! Special Edition Contest Entry. Easy make-ahead salmon patties are perfect for busy weeknights. I like to make several and freeze them. Last weekend we went to Yosemite and cooked them up on a camp stove. I served them on whole wheat buns with a home made tarter sauce. Simple, lots of flavor and nutritious."
