Salmon Patties

We had these salmon patties for dinner last night.  The recipe makes about 7 nice patties.  So I had 3 left-over for lunch today.  I served them on a bed of lettuce, tomatoes, and salad dressing for lunch today.  It was really good and I will make them again.

2 Tablespoons minced onion
1 teaspoon dried dill
1 tablespoon dry parsley
3 dashes tobasco
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 eggs
8 crackers - coarsely crumbled (I used about 1/2 cup of wheat germ instead)
juice and zest of 1 lemon
12 crackers crushed fine for coating the patties
(sometimes I also use wheat germ to coat the patties)
