Salmon Burger

 Hey, look what I found:

Apparently you can get canned salmon that isn't full of bony nastiness.

So I had a delicious salmon burger for dinner. 

1 egg
1 spoonful of sour cream w/ chives
1 can of salmon
some bread crumbs

I ate the burger on 1/2 of a wheat bun, toasted, with sliced avocado and roma tomatos.  Also, some cole slaw and sweet potato & parsnip fries. 

Corn-Salmon Chowder

Another experimental culinary success. 

My first attempt at a chowder, and it was quite delicious.

This is definitley a recipe I am going to keep and repeat.

-in a large soup pot, steam 1 bowl of chopped celery and 1/4 chopped yellow onion with butter and bacon grease

 -when the celery and onions are soft, add 2 large carrots, grated

-add some chicken stock (not enough for the veggies to be swimming, but enough that they don't get dry and stick

-allow the carrots to steam until soft, add more chicken stock as needed

-add seasoning (garlic powder, mustard powder, basil

-add 1 can of creamed corn, 1 can of corn, and 1 can of evaporated milk

-add 1/2 pound of salmon, cooked and flaked (I cooked mine with a garlic/mustard glaze

-stir well, bring to a boil, simmer for 10-15 minutes, stirring to prevent sticking
