Just tried this and it's good!

4 oz Nova salmon

4 oz grated Parmesan cheese

Mix first 5 ingredients in a blender for about 30 seconds.

Chopped up salmon and mix one ounce each into each tart pan so that all pieces are submerged.

Kefir is a probiotic milk - very good for you! You can find it in the dairy section of any major grocery/speciality store.

is it also lactose free? not sleeved yet - but read on the forums about lactose intolerant after surgery....so I'm just trying to understand it all ahead of time.

thanks.

You can substitute soy milk or lactaid milk if you wish. I added Kefir because it has more protein than milk, 11 grams per 8 oz for Kefir and 8 grams per 8 oz for milk.

This recipe can be adapted any way you want. You could use ricotta cheese instead of cottage cheese as well, or substitute ham that has been finely chopped for the salmon.

Thank you so much for posting this recipe! I really can't wait to try it!!!

Hope you enjoy! I tried it today with ham and Baby Bell lite cheese... It was great

do you put the already cooked, smoked salmon in it?

I just used ham instead of salmon and Baby Bell instead of the shredded cheddar. I shredded the Baby Bell by hand and baked it as usual. All the other ingredients are the same.... Very tasty!!
