Canned salmon recipes?

Hey, I have a bunch of canned salmon and I've never had it canned, or cooked it at all. Does anyone have any good recipes that they make from canned salmon?Canned salmon recipes?
My mother-in-law makes the BEST salmon patties from canned salmon. First clean the fish from it's bones and skin (that is the worst part). Then add one egg beaten, celery salt, ground black pepper, dill, a lot of lemon juice (I use the kind in the little plastic lemon, it's fine for this) and about 1/8C paprika. Shape into small patties, and dredge in cornmeal mix. Preheat about 1 1/2 inches of canola oil in a deep skillet. Place dredged patties and cook about 4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown! I hope this helps. When my husband and i were very low on money this was a great dinner with some mac and cheese!Canned salmon recipes?
