    • 1/4 cup cream cheese, softened

    • 1/4 cup mayonnaise

    • 1 medium green onion, chopped

    • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

    • 1 teaspoon garlic powder

    • 1 pinch salt

    Directions

    • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a baking dish with oil or non-stick cooking spray.
    • In a mixing bowl, combine crab meat, shrimp, cream cheese, mayonnaise, green onion, lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until well blended.
    • Place the salmon fillets on a cutting board, and using a sharp knife, make a slit along the side of each fillet to create a pocket.

    • Serve warm with your choice of sides. Enjoy your delicious crab and shrimp stuffed salmon!

    Tip of the Day

    “Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

    Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!
