Kittencal's Simple and Delicious Salmon Salad Sandwich

Submitted by Kittencalrecipezazz

"As like my recipe#116814 this is simple but big on flavor and also will work wonderful using cooked fresh cold leftover salmon in place of canned, once you taste this you will crave it all the time! ---plan ahead the salmon mixture needs to chill for at least 2 hours or more before using don't think about using it before that time the longer chilling time the better! --- two cans of salmon should give you three sandwiches but it will depend on how much salmon filling you use --- you may also add in 1/2 cup or more of finely chopped seeded cucumber if desired, all amounts may be adjusted to taste."

Overall this was the best salmon salad my husband and I have ever tasted. I only made half the recipe which was just enough for the two of us. I added about a half teaspoon of sweet pickle relish to the salmon mixture and I spread mayo and lots of pepper on the toast. Absolutely amazing.
