Okay, as promised, this is my original recipe for a yummy and (mostly) healthy fish appetizer or snack.
What you'll need:
I'm originally from (Waythefrickupthere) Northwest Washington, where fresh salmon is easy to find, but if you happen to live in a place where fresh salmon is difficult to find, I highly recommend just buying one from Costco. I usually find a $17-$20 fish will feed my family and have additional left over.
After you've cleaned your salmon and have laid it in a lightly oiled glass casserole dish, lightly salt the top side, sprinkle brown sugar and pour about a cup and a half of orange juice over it. Cover with tin foil and bake for about 45 minutes on 400 or until a light shade of pink, baste often to achieve maximum flavor and moisture. Set to the side and let it cool.
While the salmon is cooling, prep the rest of the snack by spreading the cream cheese on the cracker and placing them on a baking sheet, and slicing up your cheese. I recommend sipping on a frosty alcoholic beverage (unless you are underage, live in a dry county, are recovering or just prefer not to).
Next, layer on the flaky, tender fish
Ladle on the mango salsa, top with cheese and stick back in the oven for about 5 minutes, or until cheese is melted.
What you'll need:
- About 5 lbs of Salmon
- 1cup orange juice
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1box of Triscuts
- about 3 cups mango salsa
- 8oz Philadelphia cream cheese
- About half a block of thinly sliced Tillamock Pepper Jack cheese

| Yea.. It IS as good as it looks (if you think it looks delicious). |
