Here's an old-fashioned favorite from my childhood, the classic version of salmon in cream sauce. This Creamed Salmon Recipe is comforting and rich, not to mention budget-friendly and a meal that can be served in a jiffy. We really enjoy creamed salmon served over toast but it's also delicious served on a bed of tender egg noodles or cooked rice.

Instructions
In a large skillet or saute pan over medium heat, melt the butter, then whisk in the flour, mustard, and granulated onion; cook for one full minute, whisking often.
Remove the skillet from the heat and gradually whisk in the milk until smooth. Return the skillet to medium heat and cook the sauce until thickened and glossy, stirring constantly, 1-2 minutes.
Reduce the heat to low; whisk in the lemon juice, salt, pepper, and dill. Gently fold in the salmon and peas, cooking over very low heat until heated through, 3-5 minutes.
Serve the creamed salmon over warm toasted bread, garnished with sliced scallions and minced Italian parsley, as desired.
