- 2 stalks green onions, finely chopped
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice

Directions
Step 1
Drain the canned salmon and remove any large bones or skin, if desired.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, combine the salmon, egg, breadcrumbs, green onions, minced garlic, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well incorporated.
