If you tune into Instagram stories on a frequent basis, you know my daughter has a LOVE for food. The girl is down to try just about anything. She's been on the salmon train since she started solids back around 7-8 months and we're going strong. These Salmon Cakes are a fantastic lunch, dinner or quick snack if you're looking for extra protein. If you're looking for more toddler-friendly meals, you have to make my simple and tasty Zucchini Feta Frittatas. Love!

I'm all about exposing babies / toddlers to lots of flavor up front - so don't shy away from the herbs. Just chop them up small so they don't feel funny in a toddlers mouth if that's a concern.

I serve these alongside a big heaping spoonful of guacamole or pesto so Poppy can learn how to dip her food in a condiment. Go ahead and make a double batch because I can guarantee that you'll be wanting to eat these too!

  1. These were delicious!! I topped with Tzatziki and it was amazing. I am curious how to find your recipes in MyFitness Pal for tracking.

  2. I totally understand why you are putting your own seasoning there and linking it, and I really would buy it because I'm sure it's great, however for those of us who live outside of the United States that's not possible. It would be really wonderful if you were able to put an alternative suggestion for seasoning considering not everyone has access to yours! 🙂 I can wing it but I imagine for others it may be a reason to pass on the recipe!!
