Salmon Salad

August 19, 2009 by Erica 2 Comments

Salmon Salad

This is a tasty salad that I make when I have left over salmon, although sometimes I purposely make salmon to create this salad. Capers, dill, lemon, and some yogurt and/or mayo, and you have the makings of a versatile salad base. This base will taste great with tuna fish or other left-over fish.

It’s great on its own, on crackers, bread, or on a bed of lettuce with tomatoes, onions, and pickles. This salmon salad makes a great sandwich using sandwich rounds or sandwich rolls.

I don’t eat much meat these days, for many reasons, so when the grill is going for other stuff, I’ll wrap a piece of wild caught salmon in a piece of foil with some butter on top, and let it cook for about 10 minutes, in a medium warm area of the grill.

Salmon Salad

You can use cooked or canned salmon for this recipe.
If you don't have mayo, or yogurt, you can substitute one for the other.
The capers could pass for peas in this photo, and I have a feeling peas would taste good in this salad as well.
