Canned Salmon - Ideas anyone?

I have lots of cans of salmon and need some good suggestions as to what to do with them. I've made salmon latkes (with onion, potatoes, seasoning), but we're all tired of those. Any ideas?

Salmon knish is great. Maybe a pasta with the salmon in creamy mushroom sauce.

Recently we made panini like sandwhiches using canned salmon, fried onions and red peppers Alondra with sliced avacadoe. It was yummy.

I want to try to make salmon casserole instead of tuna. Here is my easy tuna recipe that I plan to change (but I haven't tried it yet):

3 cans tuna (I think they are 6-7 oz?)
A little less than 1 lb cottage cheese
1 can cream of mushroom soup
3-4 eggs
1/2 cup rice (raw)
onion flakes
parsley flakes
dill

Combine all ingredients. Bake uncovered at 375 until done - about an hour, might need a little longer.

The original is great too!

salmon burgers

I have a recipe I use thats for tuna burgers that I substitute salmon from time to time. Its yum. I'll try to dig it up if you want it

Refresing salad:

take 2 cans of slamon (tuna also works great, btw)
mash with fork (drain liquid before)
add finely grated carrot and diced pickle (amount: to taste)
mayonnaise and salt (to taste).

My family loves it.

salmon burger:

1 med carrot grated
1 med onion finely chopped
1 can of salmon (6 1/2 oz)
1 egg
2 tbsp mayo
1 1/2 cup bread crumbs
1 tsp oil
salt and pepper to taste

mix all together season (works well in a food processor) make sure though u mash it well no large pieces of salmon left. Make in to patties. Grill pan fry or bake in a 375 oven till slightly browned and held together.

I put in on a bun with tomatoes sauteed onion and a garlic mayo sauce. Sometimes I also make them into nuggets (as opposed to a burger) and make a dipping sauce for the kids.

enjoy!
