Great for someone counting calories that needs to whip up something quick. I used reduced fat garden herb cream cheese to give it some oomph. Toast your bread to give it more of a warm dinner type of feel. I love to cook and I am experienced, but I truly appreciate how beginner-friendly this is which is CRUCIAL for people trying to become aware of what and how much they are consuming all while being a busy human being. High protein and fiber will keep you feeling sufficed! PS-Costco sells canned wild caught Alaskan sockeye salmon.
Ya, I love this recipe, its nice and simple allowing the flavour of the salmon to melt in your mouth
And to Make It Even More Healthy... 1) Use wild-caught red sockeye salmon rather than pink salmon; 2) Try substituting 4 oz. of ripe avocado for the cream cheese. 3) Try substituting a sprouted grain bread for the pumpernickel. 4) And of course use organic ingredients whenever possible.
Filling!I enjoyed this meal for its ease and nutrition. I find salmon from packets is quite a challenge to flavor. I used 2- 5oz salmon packets and when I added the seasoning measurements as written I tasted only salmon. I used almost a 1/4 cup of lemon juice and still barely tasted it. The extra lemon juice created extra-runny salmon salad, which resulted in soggy bread.Pros: healthyCons: needs flavor

My husband loved it It needs more crunch I am considering adding spring mix instead of romaine lettuce next time as well as a bit of salt. Overall I really felt good about eating this for dinner and cannot complain if my husband Loved it. Pros: healthy, quick, lemony Cons: needs more crunch

Canned salmon is already cooked - think canned tuna
Great with the cauliflower-cheddar soup from January 2010.
