Marked down deli ham from the freezer. Lightly browned for ham, egg and cheese.

Also been buying quite a few half gallons of marked down half and half for the last few months for .75 cents. I've been culturing those with buttermilk and Greek yogurt for added shelf life. Half and half makes a nice rich and thick buttermilk or yogurt.

Added some cooked strawberries to this latest batch of yogurt. 😋

Hey Barney, could you share your salmon patty recipe? I've tried dozens amd still haven't found one like I remember growing up....
Absolutely!
I've been using this one for a couple of years using saltine crackers and we all love it. Some use Ritz crackers as well but have not tried those yet.

1 can salmon or mackerel.
25 saltine crackers crushed to coarse meal.
1 egg.
2 T. grated onion. I used green tater onions green tops and all. The white part sliced very thinly.
1/4 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. black pepper

Drain the salmon juice in a mixing bowl. Add the egg to the juice and whisk, then add the cracker crumbs, salt, pepper, onion and stir the mixture until combined. It should be a very thick batter. If it seems dry add a little milk.

Dump the salmon on a plate or bowl and remove the bones if you like and flake it to the size morsels you prefer, then add it to the batter and stir just until mixed and then form patties. I usually make 4 large patties from a can of salmon. I fry the patties in a mixture of butter and olive oil medium low heat for about 6 to 8 minutes per side covered.
