I really never liked salmon. It always smells funny and it's so oily. But I know it's very good for you. Starkist now has these packages of tuna in different flavors, in pouches. They have salmon, too. It tastes more like tuna and does not seem oily at all. In this recipe I substituted tuna for half of the salmon, but I doubt it would make much difference if you made the whole thing salmon.
