Salmon salad

I already told you how much I like the new edition of the The Taste of Home Cookbook. Here’s another recipe from this fabulous book. I used fresh salmon instead of canned, and substituted yogurt for the sour cream. Using the fresh salmon obviously upped the time needed to put this together, but if you chose to used canned, it only takes 10 minutes to prepare!
