I have to say I/we enjoy salmon ... and we enjoy other fish too! My friendly fishmonger knows me well, and when shopping I do tend to look out for special offers or reduced deals that may be available on fish and of course the other type of real fresh foods we enjoy eating too. It does pay to watch your £'s, $'s or whatever your currency may be!

Hi Jan.
For those eating salmon this is nice.
Gives me an idea for a veg or bean curd version.
Wishing you a yummy weekend.
It's time for me to do some salmon, thanks for the inspiration!
Salmon is my favorite fish. Those dishes look delicious.
When I like salmon, but, I can't stand though its stomach filled plastic.
My hubs loves salmon.
Patty Salmon with feta looks so good
Fab recipe and as we eat salmon a lot this is appreciated.x
Salmon is my favourite fish! I've already copied these recipes. Thank you, Jane, for all these fabulous suggestions. The photos are so appealing!!
Oh my! That looks absolutely scrumptious. I like salmon too, when it's not overcooked.
We always had salmon croquettes when I was growing up. It was one of our favorite meals and from canned salmon. We also ate canned salmon in scrambled eggs. THAT s delicious. I may make some for dinner this week.
fantastic sharing dear Jan!

thank you for recipes ,patties are in my list
I want to thank you for stopping by yesterday. Nothing is broken, but I’m so sore I can’t sit and type with one hand for any length of time. I am sending this generic message because I want you to know I stopped by, appreciate you, and read your post today. Thanks for understanding.
Sounds great. We had salmon and fried potato cakes with sour cream at the Christmas market yesterday evening. Valerie
It feels so much better to eat healthy like this!
P.S. Have you tried Rebel low carb ice cream?
Salmon is one of the few things that I really don't like, but I do eat other fish and shellfish.

Hello Sandi,many thanks for your comment and question.
No, I haven't tried Rebel Low Carb Ice Cream ... should you try it please let us know what you think of it.
Many thanks
All the best Jan
PS Enjoy your weekend.
Oh lemon and salmon just go so well together! I like to eat salmon occasionally, but I find it too strong a taste lately, so I go for trout, which is a little milder, but still very tasty!

Hello Erika, many thanks for your comment and question.
There is an interesting article about 'Wild vs Farmed Salmon which you can read here
https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/wild-vs-farmed-salmon
As the author of the article Joe Leech MS says ...
"It is a good idea to eat fatty fish such as salmon 1–2 times per week for optimal health.
This fish is delicious, loaded with beneficial nutrients and highly filling — and therefore weight-loss-friendly.
The biggest concern with farmed salmon is organic pollutants like PCBs. If you try to minimize your intake of toxins, you should avoid eating salmon too frequently.
Antibiotics in farmed salmon are also problematic, as they may increase the risk of antibiotic resistance in your gut.
However, given its high amount of omega-3s, quality protein and beneficial nutrients, any type of salmon is still a healthy food.
Still, wild salmon is generally better for your health if you can afford it."
I do include a variety of fish in my menu plans, from salmon, trout, cod, haddock and smoked haddock, to prawns, mussels, scallops and more! There is so much choice.
As always what we each choose to eat has to be a personal choice. It is important to always have regard to any food allergies, or underlying health issues. These must always be taken into account. If you are a diabetic and not sure how certain foods may affect your blood sugars, test is best, i.e. use your meter.
I do hope the above may help.
All the best Jan
PS Enjoy your weekend … here in the UK we have a lot of rain!!!
I really like salmon. It's been awhile since I had any. Time for that!
I just can't bring myself to eat seafood.
Salmon is very welcome in our kitchen!
Thank you.
