This recipe brings me back to my Southern roots. I grew up eating these often and in fact, two of the houses I lived in had a pecan tree in the front yard. These salmon pecan patties are both delicious and healthy, easy to make, golden and crispy on the outside and moist and savory on the inside. This is my grandmother’s traditional recipe with a health twist. It is a real show stopper for your taste buds, so get ready!
