To measure the goodness of life

To measure the goodness of life by its delights and pleasures and safety is to apply a false standard. The abundant life does not consist of a glut of luxury. It does not make itself content with commercially produced pleasure, the nightclub idea of what is a good time, mistaking it for joy and happiness. On the contrary, obedience to law, respect for others, mastery of self, joy in service--these constitute the abundant life.
Thomas S. Monson, "In Quest of the Abundant Life", Ensign, Mar. 1988, 2

...or if you crave meat

Fresh & Hearty!

Use those tuna/salmon/crab cans and/or packets...
seriously people.
Just to draw your attention to the lower right: the newly organized pages. This beauty (recipe) is from the shelf stable recipes. We will continually be updating that page!

Salmon Cakes
Makes 6 2-oz. patties

1-5oz can of pink or red salmon (can be interchanged with tuna or chicken)
2 oz. Mayonnaise
½ c. Breadcrumbs or 4-5 slices of fresh bread torn into very small pieces
1 egg
1 tsp celery powder (¼ c. Celery fine diced)
1/8 c. of dried onion, reconstituted (¼ c. Onion fine diced)
2 tsp. Ground mustard
Salt and Pepper

¼ c.Flour
¼ c.Cornmeal
1 tsp. Chili powder

-Mix all ingredients except for flour, cornmeal and chili powder and check for taste (add salt and pepper if needed). Form into patties about 2-3 oz. (a little bigger than a golf ball, then flattened slightly),

Roll lightly in mixture of flour ,cornmeal and chili powder and either bake at 3500 for 12 to 15 min or pan fry on medium heat until golden brown. Then serve.

This is great with a spinach and arugala salad, steamed asparagus or beans, or with roasted potatoes.
