Notes

Tip
I use wholemeal flour to raise the fibre content but feel free to use all white flour or half and half.
Tip
I always use a 50% reduced fat tasty cheese for these recipes. You get that lovely cheesy flavour while cutting the fat and calories.
Variation
If you’re not a salmon fan, replace with tuna.
Storage
This recipe freezes well so you can make this on the weekend, freeze and wrap separately for quick lunch making in the morning.
