Savory gefilte fish

What can I make with unsweetened gefilte fish? I need something that will dress it well, so that we won't miss the sweet taste, and that is quick and easy to make. I am trying to cut out refined sugar.
One recipe I made that went well, was defrosting it adding honey ( though it still didn't taste sweet) spreading in a pan and dumping salsa / marinara sauce on top. ( Would've been better with sweet gefilte though😀)

Thanks!

I unwrap while still frozen, cover in tomato sauce and chopped veggies (onion, pepper, whatever you like) and bake for 2 hours

Did I read this here? Fry/caramelize a few onions. Smear Dijon mustard on the fish. Smother with onions. Bake.

what brand do you buy?

I use Unger's and I don't add any sugar to the water and it comes out sweet enough. I bake it, wrapped in parchment, in a bit of water. That's it.

Love this type, you can use jarred tomato sauce with minimal sugar and add a bag of frozen peas/corn/carrots or any frozen chopped veg if you want to make it quick and easy.

Also ungers. Sometimes Benz's. But I'm talking about unsweetened gefilte fish.
Thanks everyone for the recipes. Looking forward to trying some.

Smear with mayo, coat with corn flake crumbs, crunchy fried onions and lots of spices and bake. Delish.

Just curious, per serving, how many grams of sugar does the sweetened one have in comparison to the unsweetened?
And by adding honey, how much do you add, and how does it affect the impact on the glycemic index?

Raskins unsweetened gefilte fish tastes great and savory without adding anything.
