This was a basic start to something yummy. I went with the yoghurt, mayo, salt and pepper but I nixed the celery and replaced it with cucumber -it just seemed to sound a little lighter and more fresh. I also added some red cayenne pepper to taste, served on a tortilla with a slice of ripe garden tomatoe and a squeeze of ripe lime from our tree -oh so yummy. A faint taste of pico de gallo in our salmon salad made it perfect on the tortilla. I still think it was missing something. Maybe I'll add mango next time. Thanks Jessica for the start to a new favorite.

Made this for my mother for lunch, and she seemed to like it very well. Had to add another tablespoon of mayo to make it moist enough, though. Thanks!

Good light salmon salad. I really like the fact of using yogurt and light mayo and still tastes good. I used dill instead of capers. Made with lefover grilled salmon from this site.

This salmon salad was delicious! I followed directions to the letter and served with crackers. This was devoured by my family. This is great as is and can be modified easily. Thanks for sharing.

I'm learning to love salmon as I do tuna - it's got more omega-3 stuff and less mercury....you know the information. I had a small can of salmon in my pantry that I avoided opening for the longest time...kindof squeamish about opening it. Once I did, I found this AllRecipes salmon salad and really loved it. CAUTION: the first time I made this I used a small (6-7 oz.) can of salmon; it was very similar to canned tuna. The NEXT time, I got enthusiastic about the success and used the large can (around 14-15 oz.)...the contents/salmon in the larger can were FAR less processed....I had to pick out skin and little bits of cartilidge (?) - white bits of whatever. I "soldiered" through, but cringed as I cleaned out the contents to an edible stage.) I substituted fat-free sour cream for the plain yogurt, squirted some lemon juice in, added a little salt (capers bring their own briny-salty taste) and doubled the pepper called for (I love lemon-pepper seasoning....didn't have any). Suggestion - don't be shy adding other veggies to this if you're not going to make an old-fashioned "tuna/or salmon" salad sandwich....I've added sliced radish, grated carrot, diced cucumber...have fun with it (as with tuna salad)!

This recipe is very good. The only thing different I did was add ALOT of extra mayo. I will be using this in place of tuna for sandwiches.

The use of yogurt here a great idea for lowering calories without sacrificing too much flavor. Wonderful recipe Jessica! Thanks for sharing. Question: I bought a can of wild caught pink salmon (my first time buying canned salmon) and was disappointed to find plenty of bones and some skin residues along with the salmon. I suspect this isn't in all canned salmon versions. Can anyone recommend a brand that comes without the bones? Thanks in advance.

This recipe is awesome for any leftover salmon you may have. I love how the yogurt cuts down on the mayo flavor (and the calories!) I added minced green onions into mine.

Mine came out a bit too creamy.. maybe next time I'll cut back the mayo/yogurt a smidge. I didnt have celery so I diced cucumber very fine & it seemed to work well. I added some lemon juice right to the salmon (Trader Joes Alaskan-Yum for canned) and a little garlic salt. I wrapped mine in tortillas with the lettuce so the kids 7,9 & 2 would eat without complaining about the capers, and it worked great! They gobbled them down! I will definitely make again and thanks for the great healthful post!

This was very good! I avoid tuna and this was a yummy alternative. I like salmon better than tuna anyway. I had no plain yogurt so I used light sour cream instead. I also only used half of the celery, and left out the capers and added dill. Used Trader Joe's wild Alaskan canned salmon. Ate as a sandwich on whole-grain bread, with sliced avocados and baby lettuces. So good! Next time I might add a dash of lemon juice and some garlic powder.

This was delicious, Jessica. I used leftover salmon from our Balsamic Glazed Salmon Fillets, (recipe also from this site). Only had mayo, added a bit of dill and used Lawry's Seasoned Pepper. Served on a bed of baby lettuce with sliced cucumber, avocado and grape tomatoes around the edge of the dish. Sprinkled with lemon juice. Nice change of pace from tuna, and made for a beautiful presentation. Thanks!

We eat a lot of salmon at our house and this is our favorite way to use up the leftovers. I doctor it up a little according to our tastes, but over all it is perfect. Thanks

I don't like tuna salad, so this was a good alternative. I used regular mayo and halved the recipe to make 2 servings.

What a nice change from tuna salad. As you can tell from my reviews, we eat a lot of salmon, so I always make extra to turn into salmon salad. It doesn't matter if it is Asian Salmon, Salmon with Dijon Mustard Sauce, whatever - - it all tastes great turned into salmon salad!

My husband and I loved this recipe! I used left-over grilled salmon rather than the canned. I added chopped walnuts, cut back on the celery and capers, and used a couple of shakes of cayenne rather than the black pepper. I served it on bagels with slices of smoked mozzarella, chopped tomatoes and lettuce. FABULOUS!!
