Sardine Patties

Sardine Patties are a simple, protein-packed dish made by combining canned sardines with breadcrumbs, eggs, herbs, and seasonings, then shaping into patties and baking until golden. They’re rich in protein and calcium, easy to prepare, and perfect for serving with a salad, whole grains, or a squeeze of lemon.

Make once, serve 2-3 times. Can be frozen and reheated for later enjoyment.
