Something we grew up with~

Salmon Pies...
I often make extra mashed potatoes....as was the case yesterday with the Ricardo pork dish..
I love to make additional mashed .. to make other dishes..staples..like Sheperds pies..and salmon pies..pierogies..
Tonight was salmon pie~



I like these mini Staubs..I recommend them..




Simply mix your mashed potatoes with either fresh cooked salmon or a can of salmon..Season to your liking..top with puff pastry..bake at 375 F.. for ap 45 mins.
We eat this with a fresh salad.
I add sautéed onions to my mashed potatoes for thsi dish and some Herbes De Provence~

  4. I just saw a pink heart mini LC that tempted me until I saw the price ;-)

    I love your little blue mini's and at first I thought you were going to say the leftover mashed potoes were going to be the crust, but then I saw the beautiful photos. So is the filling thick like mashed potato texture? It sure sounds good. I bought my beets this morning for the pork dish.

  10. So pretty Monique! I've never had Salmon Pie like that, but it's a great idea and what a comforting meal.

    You know I love the mini-staubs, and your photos really highlight them well. I think of you each time I use mine. They bring happy thoughts of you. :)

  11. Well, I didn't grow up eating anything that looked that good. If I had, it wouldn't have taken me 30 years to learn to like salmon.

    This sounds simple and looks so good. And I think the tiny Staubs can only enhance the dining experience.

    I get a lot of inspiration from you, my dear M.
