Fumbling Toward Culinary Talent: Salmon Spread

I was browsing through the cookbook that my parents' church made decades ago and rediscovered this recipe that my Mom contributed to the cookbook. 

Thanks Deloras - love and miss you.

Ingredients

1 can of salmon, drained well

1 package (8 oz.) of softened cream cheese

1 tablespoon of lemon juice

1 teaspoon of horseradish

1/2 teaspoon of liquid smoke

2 tablespoons of cooked onion

1 green onion, chopped finely

Salt and pepper to taste

Process

Set out the cream cheese for a couple of hours, so it softens. When you're ready to make it, dump the canned salmon in a strainer and push down with a spatula to drain well. Sauté the onion. 

Put the cream cheese and salmon into the standing mixing bowl. Add in the lemon juice, horseradish, liquid smoke, green onion, and cooked onion. Mix well. 

I'm going to use it on bagels and crackers.
