Ingredients
- 10 ounces (2 cans) salmon
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 teaspoon liquid smoke
Here's how to make it:
- Mix all ingredients together. Cover and chill 1 hour. (For added nutrition, crush up the soft salmon bones which are loaded with calcium.)
- Taste the salmon spread. If you want more smoke flavor add 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon more, 1/4 teaspoon at a time, tasting after each addition. For some color and extra flavor, garnish with fresh minced chives or green onions. This recipe could easily be cut in half. Store the salmon spread in an airtight container in the fridge.
