Ingredients

    1/2 c pecans, finely ground
    4 T chopped chives
    12 oz (1.5, 8 oz pkgs)
    4 oz hot smoked salmon
    2 eggs
    1 T fresh lemon juice
    1 T fresh parsley
    Salt to taste
    Cayenne pepper to taste
    1 t butter

Tips

We have a lot of salmon, any can be used, in this case I used sockeye. I only had a large springform so I used an 8" round cake pan.

If you top with 1 c sour cream ad 61.5 calories, 6 grams fat, 1.2 grams carbs, 0 grams fiber.


Directions

Preheat oven to 325 degrees.

Grease an 8" springform pan, use all but about 1 T of pecans to form a crust along the bottom and as much of the sides as possible. Set aside.

In a food processor, process cream cheese till smooth, add skinned, boned salmon, chives eggs, lemon juice, parsley, salt and cayenne. Process till combined.

Pour into the pan. Place in a larger pan in center of oven. Add hot water to come up halfway up the sides of the smaller pan.

Bake about an hour.

Let cool for an hour IN THE OVEN with the door ajar.

Remove from larger pan and cool. Remove sides of pan and garnish with any of the below- sour cream, chives, crumbled salmon, parsley and the 1 T of pecans.
