Chef John's Salmon Cakes

I'm using canned salmon for this delicious salmon cakes recipe. Every grocery store carries it, and canned salmon is almost always wild salmon. I'm not going to go into the wild-versus-farmed salmon debate here, but wild is not only more eco-friendly, it tastes better, and is more nutritious. You could use fresh cooked salmon for this recipe if you have leftovers, but since we are mixing this up with eggs and cracker crumbs, fresh salmon just isn't necessary, so why spend the extra cash?

Chef John's Salmon Loaf

Canned salmon is a great, inexpensive source of protein and omegas, and you may have stocked up on a few cans but not known what to do with them. This tasty shelter-in-place Chef John's salmon loaf recipe is so good for you! While salmon right out of the can may not be the most appealing thing to look at, this salmon loaf is so delicious that we can surely forgive some of its visual shortcomings. Remember, looks are less important than personality (and taste!) and this easy salmon loaf is proof of that. Serve with your favorite tartar sauce, cocktail sauce, or hot, white cream sauce.

State Fair Lemonade

This lemonade recipe is for real, authentic, vintage lemonade —the kind you might enjoy on a hot summer day at one of those stands at the state fair. Most of us make lemonade just out of lemon juice, but as you may know, the oils in the lemon peel contain a tremendous amount of flavor, and once you drink this, you won't want to go back to drinking it how you used to.

Turkey and Bacon Panini with Chipotle Mayonnaise

This turkey and bacon panini is one of my favorite sandwiches to make. I came up with the recipe when I was trying to use up leftovers one day, and my family raved! It's also excellent as a vegetarian sandwich if you leave out the turkey and bacon.

Annie's Turkey Salad

This old-fashioned turkey salad recipe can be made with leftover turkey or turkey breast. It is my great-grandmother's recipe. The cook time does not include baking the turkey, just making the salad. Keeping the salad somewhat chunky is part of what makes it good. No food processors, please. I serve this on a bed of red leaf lettuce and garnish with red and green seedless grapes and pecan halves. Cubed jellied cranberry sauce is very good with it, so I place that on the plate around the salad. Serve with assorted crackers or bread.
