OT - Salmon croquettes with mango salsa and spicy, roasted Brussel sprouts.

So why am I posting this when nothing in tonight's dinner went anywhere near an egg or grill of any type? I don't know, maybe I just am craving some acknowledgement for my efforts or seeking attention for no reason. 
Anyway, I prepare dinner on weeknights and enjoy doing so, but it has been raining all day and I had no intention of grilling, so this is what I came up with. Fairly easy and my wife enjoyed it, so that is about all that matters to me. I made up the salmon croquettes recipe as I went along, the mango salsa was just a mango chopped up and mixed with some canned salsa, and the Brussel sprouts were just tossed in oil, sprinkled with crushed red pepper flakes, garlic powder, onion salt, red pepper, paprika and black pepper and roasted in the oven. Again, easy peasy and kinda tasty.
Thanks for looking.

    I don’t care where you cooked it or why you posted - that looks delicious. I enjoy seeing how other folks handle cooking and daily life. None of us can egg every day. Thanks for posting.

    Thanks. Like I said, I just made it up as I went along but it went something like this:

    Fresh salmon piece lightly poached then cooled and flaked, mixed in a bowl with an egg and some mayo for moisture, fresh lemon juice, cilantro, finely diced onion, black pepper, some finely ground bread crumbs for binder, then all mixed together then formed into the patties, then dredged in an egg wash and coated with panko bread crumbs.
    Sauteed in a cast iron pan with a thin layer of oil until nicely browned on both sides. The mango salsa added a nice touch even if I mostly faked it and fresh made salsa would have been much better. Still, chopping fresh mango in jarred salsa kicks it up a bit in the flavor and freshness department without a lot of effort.
