Flaked Salmon Salad with Dijon, Lemon, and Capers

  5.0 – 2 reviews  • Salmon Salad Recipes

Salmon flake leftovers from baking or poaching are excellent. can be used as a spread for crackers, on salad greens, in a sandwich, or on a toasted English muffin. The dressing alone creates a tartar sauce that is highly delicious.

Very, very good! Nice change from tuna salad!

I was honestly shocked by how much my family loved this- they absolutely gushed over it! I made as written other than leaving out capers because I didn’t realize that I was out. They actually made a trip to the store for more crackers just so they could keep eating it! Next time I will make with salmon my husband has grilled rather than using baked salmon, and I might consider adding thinly sliced celery to the mix.
