Adapted from Darlene's Recipe, many years ago! It is one of my go to lunches for 2 or great as an appetizer. Serve with crackers and veggies! My grampa once said of the depression, "If you had a large can of salmon and cream you could serve 8 people dinner. Add potatoes and bread, alongside and you were ready for company." Not sure this recipe would serve 8 as a meal but certainly makes lunch or appetizers all the better. Use Wild Sockeye Salmon, it really is worth it!
