Salmon & Asparagus Salad Sandwich ~ Sumptuous Spoonfuls #sandwich #recipe

Instead of tuna salad sandwiches, try using salmon for a change! It just tastes better. To make these sandwiches even healthier, I used Greek yogurt in place of most of the mayo. It works beautifully. You can use any kind of cooked salmon for this … or even canned salmon works.


I made this recipe for a special project I was working on last weekend (to be revealed later this week!), but there was enough left over for me to have a few good sandwiches out of it.

I really love the taste of salmon and asparagus together, so when I started making some salmon salad for a sandwich, it just seemed natural to grab the asparagus out of the fridge drawer and add that. Then it occurred to me it would be even better to pile a bunch of the beautiful green spears on my sandwich and melt some cheese over it. So I did! 🙂

Instructions

  1. Mix all salmon salad ingredients together in a bowl.
