1/2 cup low fat sour cream
4 eggs

2 tsp green onion chopped
1/2 large red pepper chopped finely
2 6 oz cans of boneless, skinless salmon drained
1 cup Havarti, Monterey Jack or Swiss cheese grated
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 tsp freshly-ground black pepper
fresh parsley and lemon wedges garnish

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375. Spray a 9-inch, glass, deep-dish pie plate with vegetable oil.
Beat Bisquick (or homemade flour mixture), milk,sour cream, eggs and dill with an electric mixer in a small bowl untilwell-blended.
Fold in chopped red pepper, salmon, grated cheese, green onions, salt and pepper. Mix well.
Pour into pie plate and bake 40 minutes or until a knife inserted in the centre comes out clean. Allow it to rest for 5 minutes before cutting.
Garnish with sprigs of fresh parsley or dill and lemon wedges. Serve with fresh asparagus, green beans or green salad.

Notes

If your oven temperature is uneven, you may need to turn the pie plate a few times while it's cooking so it cooks evenly.
If you're using salmon with bones, the bones are edible. Just crush them with a fork. But try to remove as much of the skin as possible for aesthetics.
If you're using a deep-dish pie plate, the mixture won't run over while cooking. So it's best not to substitute a different size plate.
Allow the cooked salmon pie to rest a few minutes before serving.
To switch this recipe up a bit, add sliced black olives to the mixture and top it with a scattering of goat cheese.
You can also boost the freshness by arranging thinly sliced tomatoes on the top midway through the cooking process.
If you're cooking exclusively with pantry ingredients and don't have fresh red pepper, substitute 1/2 cup of chopped, well-drained, roasted red bell peppers from a jar.
