Salmon Sandwich
Red salmon is loaded with health benefits that protect your heart, brain, joints, eyes, and bones, so be sure to leave the bones in for their calcium. The bones are soft and will disappear once they are mashed. I remove the skin but you don't have to.

Hi Jenny, I’ve already done some of your recipes, and I am very please with the results. I would like to know if you have a recipe for cooking a Ham.
Hope to hear from you,

Hi Jenny,
Have been a fan of yours for years. I have found the most delicious recipes on your site and especially love the Polish delights. I was raised in Detroit and made weekly trips to Hamtramck for fresh kielbasa and other sausages.
Thank you for this great site and for sharing your talented recipes.

Love this simple recipe . Have made it a looong time ago & was glad to be reminded that this IS a sandwich option . Have made it several times since reading your recipe – had it for breakfast this morning & it was even yummy at 9:30 a.m. ! Thank you for the tip about the skin ; I had no idea . Trying to be healthier & your recipes & insights are great .
Hi Jenny, I too have made salmon patties for years and have them for dinner occasionally and my husband will eat those but not fresh salmon. I love salmon in sandwiches and salads and use lowfat mayo and finely diced celery when I mix it and tuna. I was raised eating creamed salmon on toast for lunch or dinner and it is a favorite.
I’ve had a tuna sandwich but never one with salmon. Never really though of it. I love salmon. Grew up eating it as a child. Looks delicious. I will be trying this…btw, my mom still makes salmon patties, leaves the bones, but removes the skin as well. Last week she made salmon patties and added purple onion to them and omg,…yum!…one more thing, sometimes I use mustard for dipping…
Hi Jenny, i just love your website and all your great recipes! Sometimes I drop in for a short visit and find myself still here after 2 hours! I, too, make this wonderful Salmon Sandwich using Miracle Whip Light and adding about a cup of diced celery for lots of crunch. The 2 flavours go so well together and extra veggies are always a good thing! The added lettuce is a great idea… Thanks! My husband often asks… “Is this one of Jenny’s recipes.” And chances are, It is! Thanks again for all your help in feeding my family deliciously healthy!
