Ingredients
  

  • 8 oz. canned salmon
  • cup panko breadcrumbs toasted

Instructions
 

  • In a small skillet over medium-low heat toast the panko breadcrumbs until lightly toasted. Being careful not to burn them.
  • In a medium bowl combine the salmon, egg, toasted breadcrumbs, hummus, dijon mustard, turmeric, garlic power, lemon juice and zest, fresh dill and parsley and salt and pepper.
