Notes
Due to the variation in moisture content of canned goods, your cakes might not hold together well. If so, first try adding a bit more breadcrumbs. If that doesn't work, add another flax egg, although I've never had to do this.
Remove extra moisture: Pat the salmon dry after rinsing. COOK the veggies! Raw vegetables hold a lot of water, which will get released during cooking. It will also add more flavor so definitely don't skip this step!
Shape the mixture FIRMLY into balls first then flatten slightly between your palms.
Transfer to an airtight container and keep in the fridge for up to 5 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
