Recipe: Salmon and Peas on Toast

This is one of those recipes that tastes better than it sounds, trust me.

It was one that I had when I was a kid and even eating it now, the tastes bring back a flood of childhood memories. This meal is truly comfort food for me – and as a bonus, it’s very inexpensive to make!

Note, if you don’t use canned salmon (I’ve found some good kinds, but it’s hard to find it in BPA free cans), bake 2 salmon pieces, let cool and flake.

Enjoy!
