And unexpected guests will not take you by surprise. There is always the opportunity to quickly prepare a salad with canned (fish). The recipe that is right for you can be easily selected from the following.
Pink Salmon Salad
The simplest canned fish salad. The recipe is similar to known since
Soviet times salad "Mimosa", only in anti-crisis performance. No exotic is required for cooking. Ideal for dinner, when there is neither the strength nor the desire to mess around for a long time with cooking. Take out a jar of canned salmon from a refrigerator, cream cheese or hard cheese, a couple of eggs, a few feathers of green onions (in the absence of a small onion, too) and mayonnaise. We start cooking. Grind boiled eggs and cheese, finely chop the onion. Open canned food, strain the liquid, mash with a fork, but not until mashed. To make the dish juicier, you can add a spoon or two of juice from a jar of fish. Combine everything in a salad bowl, season with salt and pepper, pour with mayonnaise, mix gently. This recipe for canned fish salad can be made more satisfying by adding half a glass of boiled rice.
Tuna with green beans
Instead of tuna, you can take pink salmon for cooking, but the dish will turn out drier. This recipe for canned fish salad can also be classified as instant. Stock up a can of canned food, half a pack of frozen bean pods, a dozen quail eggs and herbs. There is nothing complicated in cooking. Boil the beans and cool, finely chop the greens, cut the eggs in half. Mash tuna (without juice) and mix with beans and herbs, add salt, pepper, add a little oil and mix. Put in a ring on a flat dish, and put half the eggs in the center. The canned fish salad recipe can be varied by adding kohlrabi inflorescences instead of bean pods.

A quick and easy recipe for canned fish salad “Sprats in Oil” will decorate a simple family dinner. In addition to a jar of sprat, you only need a couple of potatoes, 4 eggs, an onion, small pickled champignons (caps) and mayonnaise.
