My favorite to use left over salmon and those lovely small packages of smoked salmon trimmings that are such a good buy (check for them in the refrigerated meat/fish section.) If I don't have left over salmon, I sometimes will use canned salmon along with the smoked bits. One 6 oz. can will do it. My family likes this and it's a simple, pretty healthy one dish meal. From the cookbook "Plenty" by Diana Henry.
