Canned salmon is easy to prepare, moist, and the bones are soft and edible for that extra calcium. Great for brunch or lunch.
Canned salmon is so much healthier than tuna. Sadly, tuna has a lot of mercury in it these days in consumers are warned to limit how much they eat. No requirement to put it on the label.
