This is fantastic! My family loves this recipe. I would recommend this to everybody. The filling is smooth, the crust is flaky. For the kids, I recommend slicing the piece of pie horizontally so that both crust are down on the dish and the salmon side is up. Place American cheese on top of the salmon, it will melt and the kids will love it!
