Salmon Salad on Whole Grain English Muffins

Tonight I felt like something light. Neither one of us was very hungry, and Julian had an "antojo" for salmon. So, I whipped up some salmon salad using a variation of my tuna salad recipe and served it on whole grain English Muffins. Super simple, but I really enjoyed it.


Ingredients
1 lb Salmon
2 Tbsp. light Miracle Whip or Mayo
2 tsp. Lemon Juice
1 stalk Celery, chopped
1 tsp. Dijon Mustard
several sliced sweet pickles from the Amish Market
salt and pepper
Whole Grain English Muffins, toasted

Directions
I grilled the salmon using our new Grill Pan adding only a little bit of salt to each side. One trick to not ruin your pan is instead of spraying the entire pan with cooking spray, just spray the fish. Once the fish was done, I let it cool for a few minutes while I added together the other ingredients. Then I added the salmon and flaked it with a fork as I mixed the ingredients all together. Once the salmon salad was complete, I served it on top of the toasted muffins.

Drink: Flying Dog Pale Ale

Ed's Verdict: Although light, because of the inclusion of the English Muffins, it did not meet Ed's diet requirements very well.

But then again, neither did the cold stone we shared this afternoon...
