Notes

  • Drain the excess liquid, bones, and skin off the canned salmon before adding it to the casserole.
  • Salmon bones are edible and are a great source of calcium. With that being said, add them to the casserole, if desired. 
  • If evaporated milk is not accessible, regular milk could be used. 
  • Use you favorite variety of crackers for the topping; our favorites are butter crackers.
  • Crushed potato chips or corn flakes are suitable substitutions for crushed crackers if desired.
  • Make one large 13 x 9 inch casserole, or split into 2 casseroles by using a 1 1/2 or 2 quart-sized pans instead.
