Salmon and Arugula Appetizer
Makes 30 one-inch balls
Time 40 min
Matzoh meal, made from unleavened matzoh crackers, is used in this recipe to help hold the arugula mixture together, much the same way that breadcrumbs are often used as a binder in meatloaf.

Ingredients
- 3/4 pound arugula
- 3/4 pound boneless, skinless, salmon fillet, very finely chopped

Stir in arugula, provolone, matzoh and onion by hand.
