VEGETABLE SALMON CAKES

1 lb canned salmon, drained

1 cup dried bread crumbs

3 medium russet or white potatoes, skinned, cooked, and mashed

½ cup grated carrots

½ cup minced onion

2 tbsp fresh lemon juice

In a medium bowl, combine the salmon, ½ cup of the bread crumbs, potatoes, carrots, onion, lemon juice, and eggs, mixing well.  Coat a large skillet with nonstick cooking spray and place over medium heat.  Form the salmon into patties and coat with remaining bread crumbs.  Place the salmon cakes in the heated skillet and cook for 6 minutes per side or until golden brown.  Remove from heat, transfer to a serving platter, and serve hot.
