Asian Salmon Croquettes

This is a quick and inexpensive recipe that uses several pantry staples like whole wheat bread crumbs, canned salmon, soy sauce and sesame oil.

Salmon is full of healthy fats called omega-3s, which reduce inflammation within the body. Consuming adequate omega-3s can help reduce the risk for Alzheimer’s and promote heart health. Aim to eat two servings of seafood high in omega-3s per week. Salmon, tuna, mackerel oysters, sardines and anchovies are all great options!
