Salmon and sardine patties

I love salmon patties. They're quick and easy and taste great. I was trying to figure out how to get more sardines into my diet. I had a number of cans of sardines in my pantry so it made sense to use them but also sardines are supposed to be good for you. Sure, salmon is too but I find it harder to work sardines into my eating patterns. I've written about this before so I guess it's an ongoing challenge for me. This time I wanted something warm for dinner, not a sardine salad so I came up with the idea of salmon and sardine patties. Because we're doing the 2021 Veggie Challenge, I wanted to be sure to add some vegetables to this. Normally...

Love veggies? Love eggs? Me too! I took a bag of frozen veggies, defrosted it and added it to some scrambled eggs. My big mistake? Tough to flip.

This one had a non-baking handle, so I ended up flipping it, in three sections. Not a problem for me, but I had anticipated a more beautiful finished product. Still, it tasted GREAT!! Delicious and my favorite way to add lots of vegetables into my meals!...

In one of the recent podcasts I was thinking about my Frittata with Pepper Stir Fry breakfast when I said that I was cheating on the 2021 Veggie Challenge. We are all trying to add vegetables to our meals. The challenge for me is to eat more vegetables in my diet. The way I've been cheating is buying frozen vegetable packs and using them instead of cleaning, cutting and preparing fresh veggies. Jill replied that she doesn't think it is cheating, so I've decided to share this "recipe" with all of you. It's very easy and delicious too. Some people cook the eggs in an oven ready pan so they can bake the veggies into the frittata, but I take the easy stove top way instead. Pop...
