Amazing - this is the first time I've made anything with shrimp so I was a little worried but it turned out fantastic. The cheese sauce was a little too salty, but I notice the online version calls for 1/2 tsp less.

Reviewed on Oct. 17, 2011 by DarlingStarling

Yum, yum, and more yum. We indulge in this recipe several times each winter. I cut down on the salt in the cheese sauce. Definitely try with broccoli, and maybe some cauliflower.

I hate dill, so I omitted that. And several friends that tried it thought it much better without the dill. Otherwise, a truly fantastic way to eat salmon!!

Reviewed on Feb. 03, 2011 by raceywlf

Just love this recipe, I did cut back on the fat, substituting oil for some of the butter, and not using all the cheese, and using skim milk instead of cream. it turned out wonderful, have made it many times. thanks for the great recipe.

This is a rich and delicious meal that my husband and I enjoy making together. I almost always serve it with steamed broccoli-- the sauce compliments it perfectly. I highly recommend this recipe!
