I used canned salmon and mixed in just a touch of light mayo and mustard and added it to a bed of spinach with strawberries, pineapple and a bit of poppyseed dressing because I was feeling like a rebel. The result was full of flavour, filling and ready in under 5 minutes. I also sometimes add slivered almonds, feta, mandarins, dried cranberries or blueberries depending on what I have at home.
Yeah, the canned salmon on a salad definitely makes a quick, healthy lunch. I like the Costco sockeye salmon– too bad it’s a lot more expensive than the pink salmon. Predictably, we have a stack of pink salmon in the cupboard but no sockeye. Time to think up some kind of salmon loaf or casserole to use it up so I can get more sockeye!
