Easy, Inexpensive Salmon Cheese Ball

This recipe has the advantage of utilizing canned salmon, which is cheaper than smoked salmon, contains no sharp bones, and is easier to work with than hard-smoked fish. The addition of liquid smoke is a must for this recipe.

Ingredients

- 1 eight ounce package of cream cheese, softened.
- 1 sixteen ounce can of salmon, well-drained and flaked
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped onion
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1/4 teaspoon liquid smoke
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/3 cup chopped mixed nuts
- 1/4 cup snipped parsley

Preparation:

Mix all ingredients except nuts and parsley; shape mixture into a ball. Cover and refrigerate at least 8 hours but no longer than 4 days. Mix nuts and parsley; coat ball with mixture.
