Instructions

Prep:10min

The most important parts of this recipe are the amount of mayonnaise and the order the ingredients are added. For the mayo, 2 tablespoons per drained 6oz. can of salmon is perfect. This recipe calls for 2 cans and so 4 tablespoons (equals 1/4 cup) are used. The salad will be moist and hold together but won't be mushy. As to the ordering, you'll notice that the dressing ingredients are mixed before the salmon is added. This is so that you don't have to mix everything together a lot to get it evenly combined. Less mixing means less of a gloopy texture. Enjoy! -Christine xo
