Salmon Croquets

1 salmon fillet (or canned salmon)
1 c. rice, cooked
2 eggs
1/2 t. ground red pepper
salt and pepper to taste
saltines, crushed
butter for sauteeing

1. Mix everything together, with just enough saltines to help things stick together, but still stay a little moist.
2. Put butter in the pan on med heat and place flattened spoonfuls of mix into pan and cook about 3 minutes on each side.

*you can do bite-sized croquets or full-size patties. I add some spinach cut in little pieces and some ground flax seed, but you can try may other variations. These taste good with yummy cheesy mash potatoes (from the Tolleys)
