This is only soy free if you can manage to find mayonnaise that is not made with soy bean oil

This was excellent!! I only substituted fresh salmon that i baked as my husband is on a very restricted sodium diet. I followed the rest to a T. He loved it and can be a very picky eater. Has been thanking me for a fantastic dinner for the last hour. I will make this again. Was nice not to turn on the stove or oven on a hot Arizona day!! This recipe deserves 10 stars!!

Yum! Used smoked salmon and added 1/4 cup diced red onion and 1-2 tablespoons of capers. Was delicious! Will do again for sure, loved having a meal that didn't need to be cooked

Great recipe. This was my first time using canned salmon, and I wasn't sure how if I was going to like it, but it turned out delicious!
