This recipe is for both of my vegetarian sisters! I use to love making meatloaf, but once my sisters stop eating meat, I turned my meatloaf into salmon cakes. (They both eat fish). This was a, win win, because SALMON is a great source of vitamin B12 and vitamin D. Also, it's an excellent source of niacin, omega-3 fatty acids, protein, and vitamin B 6.
