Appetizers don’t have to be boring or difficult to make. Just a little creativity and with the right ingredients you can create anything. Salmon Mini Quiches are made with pink salmon, spices, eggs, cheese and heavy cream and most of all, no flour. They are baked in the oven for about 25 minutes for a quick and savory bite size appetizer dish.
Having Canned Pink Salmon in your cupboard is a lifesaver. Several cooking and baking dishes can be created with a little initiative and faith in yourself.
Salmon Mini Quiches
Canned salmon, tuna, sardines etc… are “bad” days foods. When you are too tired to cook, or in need of something quick, a salmon or tuna sandwich is good any day and especially for lunch. Many people prefer not to consumed canned foods but make an exception with canned tuna and canned salmon.
I call my Salmon Mini Quiches easy made quick bites because they don’t take much time to make and you can prepare them in advance. Just a quick re-heat in the microwave or in the oven, they will be consumed quickly. So make sure you make enough. This recipe is for a 24 mini muffins pan.

Notes
To make the Salmon Mini Quiches use canned pink salmon with low sodium content because of the other ingredients that already has salt. Use a 24 mini muffins pan sprayed with cooking spray so they are easier to remove. I have tried this recipe with tuna and so far salmon is the winner. Make this awesome quick appetizer for a gathering of friends and or family.
