Superfood Wild Salmon Casserole Recipe

Makes 8 Servings

Ingredients

  • 4 free-range organic eggs
  • 2 cups filtered water
  • 2/3 cup raw cashews, soaked for 2 hours
  • 1 teaspoon dried dill or ¼ cup fresh chopped dill
  • ¼ teaspoon fresh black pepper
  • 16 ounces wild Alaskan salmon, cooked and flaked
  • 1 ½ cups frozen organic green beans, thawed, partially boiled and chopped into 1 cm pieces
  • 8 ounces raw cheddar cheese, shredded & divided
  • 1 organic red bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 organic onion, chopped
  • 1/8 cup coconut flour, sifted

Crumb Topping:

  • 1 ½ cup almond flour
  • 1 ½ cup sliced almonds
  • 2 tablespoons cold, unsalted raw butter
  • ¾ teaspoon sea salt

Directions

  1. PREPARING THE CRUMB TOPPING:  Combine the almond flour, butter, and sea salt in a food processor and pulse until it resembles bread crumbs (or by hand, cut the butter into the flour with your finger tips until it resembles bread crumbs).  Refrigerate the crumble, covered, until the filling is ready to be topped.
  2. Drain and rinse cashews.  In blender, combine filtered water and cashews.  Process until very smooth.  Pour into a medium saucepan and bring to a gentle boil over Medium-High heat, stirring occasionally.  Once it starts to boil, reduce heat immediately to Low and continue stirring until thickened.  Remove from heat.  Set aside to cool.
  3. Sauté the onions and peppers until softened.
  4. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.  In a separate large mixing bowl, whisk eggs.  Stir in dill, pepper and cooled thickened cashews and mix well.  Add the flaked salmon, beans, half of the cheese, bell pepper, onion, and coconut flour.  Stir to blend.
  5. Transfer mixture to a greased (with coconut oil) 9×13 inchcasserole dish.  Sprinkle with crumb topping.  Bake for 30 minutes. Sprinkle with remaining cheese and continue baking for 5-10 minutes, until cheese is melted.  Let stand for 10 minutes before cutting and serving.
