🐭🐟 SALMON PATTY MOUSE 🧀

Looking for a Halloween dinner that’s more cute than creepy? These Salmon Patty Mice are the answer! Soft, savory, and shaped with little ears, they’re perfect for toddlers and young kids who want to join in the fun without the fright. Packed with protein and easy to make, they’re a playful twist on a classic salmon patty—turning dinner into a giggly game of “catch the mouse.”

Ingredients (makes 4):
• 1 can salmon
• 1 egg
• 1 shallot, finely diced
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 Tbsp clam juice or unsalted chicken broth
• 1 cup plain breadcrumbs

Instructions:
1. In a bowl, mix salmon, egg, shallot, garlic powder, juice/broth, and breadcrumbs with clean hands.
2. Shape mixture into patties, pressing gently.
3. Pinch the tops slightly and round out two “ears” so each patty looks like a mouse.
4. Cook in skillet with a little oil until golden brown on both sides and heated through.

🎃 Halloween Fact: Mice (and their bigger cousins, rats) became part of Halloween lore because they were often seen in old graveyards, nibbling around tombstones. But don’t worry—your little salmon “mice” are much friendlier dinner guests!

👻 Spooky Serving Idea: Place each mouse patty on a bed of spinach “grass.” Add two peas or blueberries for eyes, and use thin carrot sticks or pretzels as whiskers for extra fun.
