Prosciutto-Breaded Salmon Croquettes (paleo/grain-free)

Prosciutto-Breaded Salmon Croquettes (paleo/grain-free)

This Proscuitto-Breaded Salmon Croquettes recipe is adapted from a recipe that my mee-maw used to make. As a Georgia gal, my grandma would have never used limes or capers, so this is my upgraded and paleo version of her savory, comforting salmon patties.

Check out the dipping sauce on my Curried Venison & Pork Kebabs with an Avocado Dipping Sauce. I think it would work really well with these croquettes.
