Salmon and Broccoli Lasagna

Tasty Tidbits's Note:

The beauty of this dish is there's no sauce to make. The layers of lasagna are moistened with a blend of soft cheese and cream, flecked through with dill and sharpened with a little lemon juice. It tastes quite rich so a little goes a long way, which is good as it's definitly not fat free!!! Great dinner party entree!!!

This was a great recipe. I thought it could use a bit more salmon. So I made it again with double the amount of salmon and we like it better. Thanks
