Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 can (6 ounces) canned salmon (boneless and skinless)
- 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons celery (finely chopped)
- 2 tablespoons red onion (finely diced)
- 1 teaspoon fresh dill (chopped)
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 slices whole grain bread
- 2 large leaves lettuce leaves
- 1 medium tomato (sliced)
Instructions
Drain the canned salmon and transfer it to a medium-sized mixing bowl. Use a fork to flake the salmon into small pieces.
Add the mayonnaise, lemon juice, dijon mustard, celery, red onion, fresh dill, salt, and black pepper to the bowl with the salmon. Mix well until everything is evenly combined.
Toast the slices of bread lightly, if desired, for extra texture and flavor.
Place a lettuce leaf on one slice of bread, and add a couple of slices of tomato over the lettuce.
Spoon half of the salmon mixture onto the tomato layer, spreading it evenly to cover the surface.
Top the sandwich with another slice of bread. Repeat with the remaining ingredients to make the second sandwich.
Cut each sandwich in half diagonally, if preferred, and serve immediately. Enjoy!
