Submitted by Kizzikate

"From Taste of Home, but the recipe originally called for trout. I had salmon on hand, so that's what I used. If you decide to use trout, please let me know!!"

YUM! :) I made these with canned pink salmon, low-fat mayonnaise and low-fat sour cream. I omitted the hot sauce and added 4 cloves of minced garlic and a handful of chopped walnuts (personal taste preferences). Loved the green onions, dill and lemon juice in these: they were deliciously creamy and very flavoursome and re-heat well in the microwave so they were great for take-to-work lunches. Certainly a recipe I'll be making again. Thank you so much for sharing it, Kizzikate! Made for 1-2-3 Hit Wonders.

I made this using canned salmon which worked out very well, would never have thought to stuff taters with salmon but it was delicious, we enjoyed this, thanks Kizzi!...Kitten:)

I used salmon as well, and it was delicious! Had this as a nice light meal with some soup on the side....the whole family loved it. Easy to put together and made a classy presentation....the kids were excited to try them! Thanks for posting this, Kizzikate!! It was really excellent!
