    Morrisons do their own brand pink salmon in the tall tins but i`m not sure about the weight.
    I mix it with mayo and lots of black pepper to make a lovely sandwich spread. I add sliced cucumber to the sandwiches as i make them.

    Nicer and a lot cheaper than ham.

    My mum, of necessity, used to stretch a small tin of pink salmon into a family meal for 4. She flaked it into a buttery parsley sauce and topped with mashed potato and browned in the oven. Served with peas, half a tomato and bread and butter. It was a favourite tea and although only a tiny bit of salmon, it was very tasty. I think she mostly had mashed potato on her own plate tbh.
    Like many mums of her generation, she was a star:A!

    The only thing I really use it for is salmon quiche which we all love. :drool:

    That's all we ever use it for too :D Haven't made one for ages, but this has made me want one. They go brilliantly with salad. My recipe is so old it's all in ounces, with no hint of a metric conversion :rotfl:

    Hi, I went to Morrison's and got a big tin of pink, it was £1.50. Plus for special a small 213g tin of red.
    The big tin will do us for tea one night (2 of us) as fishcaks or something, plus I'll get a day's sandwiches for work out of it so a bargain really.

    Suunygirl, I do love the sound of your pasta idea, I've got loads of tins of tuna that I bought a couple of weeks ago. Normally I just use it on sandwiches, but a meal out of it would be lovely, and save some money too.

    I bought a tin of sardines in tomato sauce, they're brilliant for a breakfast with toast and fresh tomato. I think they were 44p, but I know the dogs will be on a mega scrounge when they see the tin being opened so I'll spread a thin layer on some toast for them too.

    A little bit of tinned fish seems to stretch a heck of a long way doesn't it? :cool:


    Hey Churchmouse, what's 'metric conversion'? :):):)

    Barneysmom, I love tinned sardines as well, and have found the Asda Smartprice are as good as any, and 23p a tine last time I looked, and if you do not like them the dogs will
