Salmon Asparagus Pie

Submitted by lauralie41

"This recipe sounds very good and uses fresh asparagus. Again, it is a recipe from Betty Crocker Bisquick cookbooklet, October 1998. If you are like me and do not like to debone and pick thru canned salmon there is also a package of salmon. I believe it is Chicken of the Sea and is in the aisle with the tuna in the grocery store. My mom has used the packaged tuna and said it does taste a bit better than the canned and not so much of the mess."

My family doesn't agree on much, but we all agreed that this was pretty bland. Wish I would have read the reviews before making it. Lots of five star reviews, but lots of reviewers tweaked the recipe. That being said, if I ever make it again, I will tweak it too. This recipe is a good base to start with, I just need to jazz it up a bit for my family to eat it.

This is like a quiche. But no crust. I like that it's made with bisquick (I made recipe#452092 and used it in this recipe). I used a bunch of asparagus and I'm sure it gave me more than 2 cups. I used a small onion instead of green onion. The taste is very good. Thanks Lauralie :) Made for PAC Spring 2012

Excellent! Hubby's doctor said to eat more green veggies, so this is a good way to start.

Made this using some leftover grilled fresh salmon, other than that one item made as per the recipe. This was so easy to make, and totally scrumptous to eat. I will try adding some garlic next time as I believe it can only add to an already yummy recipe. Thank You Lori for yet again another keeper recipe, this is being added to my Something Smells Fishy Cookbook. Made for Green event in KK's forum.

I absolutely loved this! instead of using green onions I sauteed an onion and some fresh garlic in a little butter first then layered them on the bottom of the pan I also added in some cayenne pepper, this pie is so delicious thank you for sharing Lori, this was made for KK's forum Green event
