My son hates salmon, but the DH and I love it. I've been buying it anyway and trying to serve it for dinner, but the kid won't eat it. This morning I made up some salmon salad/sandwich spread for breakfast instead of dinner. The kid sleeps through breakfast, so all is good. I wanted to make the salad light and healthy. I don't have an official recipe, but here's what I did.

Baked 3, dinner-sized pieces of frozen salmon with just a little oil on the sheet pan, no salt. Let it cool.

Added about 3 TBs. of plant-based mayonnaise and about 1/4 cup of plain, non-fat, Greek Yogurt (Fage)

Chopped up a 1/2 of a red onion and added that

Threw in a couple Tbs. of capers

Added a dash of black pepper.

I didn't need to add any salt. It tasted good without.

Squeezed in a 1/3 lemon juice.

We put it on toasted WW bread, added a 1/4 avo, a couple of Tbs. of LF Hummus and a pile of baby spinach.

Delicious!

I served it with a handful of fresh strawberries and coffee.

Some relish and chopped parsley would have been nice in the spread, but I didn't think to add them.

Now I have a way to eat our salmon without rocking the "dinner boat."

Sounds wonderful!
In one of your posts you said you aren't a good cook but a curious one.
I bet you're both!

I make different sandwich salads. I use similar ingredients, but I add sweet peppers, celery (for crunch) and hard boiled eggs. Homemade mayo, no yogurt plus salt and pepper, cumin and parsley. I love the turkey salad. Hmmmmm . . . maybe I need to cook a turkey breast today.

Oh, I have a lot of misses, but we're not going to talk about those.
