Ingredients

Scale
  1. 4 large eggs

  2. 1 can (10.75 oz) condensed cream of mushroom soup

  3. 1 teaspoon dried thyme

  4. ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

  5. 15 oz cooked salmon, flaked (canned or homemade)

  6. 1 red bell pepper, diced

  7. 1 white onion, diced

  8. 1½ cups frozen peas, thawed

  9. 8 oz shredded cheddar cheese

  10. ½ cup dried breadcrumbs

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 11×7-inch baking pan with butter or nonstick spray.

  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs until blended.

  • Stir in the cream of mushroom soup, thyme, and black pepper until combined.

  • Gently fold in the salmon, bell pepper, onion, peas, half of the cheese, and half of the breadcrumbs.

  • Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading evenly.

  • Bake for 40 minutes, or until heated through and slightly browned at the edges.

  • Remove from the oven and sprinkle the remaining cheese and breadcrumbs evenly on top.

  • Return to the oven for an additional 5 minutes, until cheese melts and breadcrumbs are golden.

 

  • Let cool for 5–10 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • For a healthier version, you can use whole wheat breadcrumbs.

  • This casserole is a great option for meal prep and can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days.

 

  • If you prefer a more flavorful twist, try adding a pinch of garlic powder or smoked paprika to the mixture
