Update on the Greek pasta with beef. It was good. Everyone liked it. I will keep it in my cookbook with the following changes: Use only half of the macaroni. I only had half a package and I am glad. Any more and the sauce wouldn't have been enough and it would have been very very pasta-y (made up word).
Last night I made an old favorite - Salmon Patties with homemade Thousand Island Dressing. We all loved them, and they were extremely economical. I served them with asian slaw. Here are the recipes:
Salmon Cobb Burgers:
One 14.7 ounce can salmon, drained and picked over
1/2 C. breadcrumbs (I used Panko)
1/2 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley
a large egg, beaten
2 T. extra-virgin olive oil
In a large bowl, combine the salmon, breadcrumbs, 2 T. Parsley, the egg, and mustard. Shape into 4 patties.
In a large nonstick skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the patties and cook turning once, until golden, about 3 minutes on each side.
Serve with thousand island dressing, as a sandwich on toasted bread, or alone.
Thousand Island Dressing
This is so easy, I don't measure. I just stir to my taste.
Ketchup ( use about equal measures of the ketchup and the mayonnaise)
Mayonnaise
pickle relish (I use about 1 T.)
chopped onion, if you like it. (My family doesn't care much for the onion, so I leave it out)
Stir together. It is best if it sits in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes.
