Grandma's Salmon Loaf

Submitted by Roqxie

"This is the closest I could come to the salmon loaf my Grandma used to serve, always with a baked potato, often with a side of broccoli. It works great with reduced fat Ritz crackers (I have tried it out), skim milk, egg substitute and olive oil instead of butter, which brings the saturated fat content WAY down while keeping the flavor and texture."
