Salmon Patties with Mango Salsa

My new favorite!  For those of you who have tried my other recipes, you know that I'm all about quick and easy.  This is a great recipe to make when you need to make dinner fast.  As long as you have a couple of the ingredients on-hand (mangos, cilantro), this is a great dish to make when you don't have a lot of time.  Start to finish was a half-hour.  If you aren't a fan of mangos, you can substitute peaches.
From the Kitchen of Ann Majors

Ingredients
Salsa
2 ripe mangos, peeled and diced
1 small (or half a large), cored, seeded, and finely chopped jalapeno pepper

2 1/2 Tbs. chopped fresh cilantro

3 tsp. lemon zest
3 finely chopped green scallions
2 large eggs
¼ tsp. black pepper

For the salsa:
1.  Combine all ingredients in a non-reactive bowl, gently mix and set aside while you prepare the patties.

For the Salmon Patties:

1.   Drain salmon, empty into a large bowl, and mash with a fork

2.   Add scallions, lemon zest, eggs, black pepper, bread crumbs and mix well.
