Oh, I've been wondering for years now how she used to make this....she has been gone about 8 years now. I had been asking Mom & Grandma for the last few years for this....and FINALLY Mom told me that my Sister had borrowed ALL of Great Grandma's recipes over a year ago and she still had them. So... I attacked!! LOL Just kidding.... I just emailed her and she gave it to me.  So, now I have changed just the dairy stuff to make it IBS safe. But MAN OH MAN we CRAVED this and she would make it for EVERY family gathering no matter what else was served THIS was ALWAYS on the table too!
Shell Marr's Great Grandma's Salmon Loaf Recipe
1 tall can of salmon (or 2 small), drained
1 small jar pimentos, drained
1 cup cooked macaroni
1/2 cup eggbeaters (or 4 egg whites)
1 cup soy or rice milk
1 cup crushed cornflakes (measure after crushed, or buy pre-crushed near bread crumbs in the store)
1 tsp. parsley
1/2 cup diced onion
1 clove diced garlic
1 cup grated soy or rice cheese of your choice (original called for med. sharp)
Press mixture in a loaf pan that has been sprayed with nonstick cooking spray and bake at 325 degrees for 1 hour. Let stand 5 mins before slicing.
Makes 8 servings (approx. 274 calories per serving, sauce not included)
*OPTIONAL SERVING SAUCE:
Saute 1 chopped green pepper, and onion in 2 teaspoons soy or rice butter (or butter flavored cooking spray) then add 1 can tomato soup-undiluted.
Heat til bubbly - serve hot in separate dish.

Shell, I just printed this one out, which for me, means it's a definite one to try. I can do this GF real easy too. With salmon I seem to need a buffer and all the solubles mixed into this fits the bill nicely.
Thanks, this sounds soo good, even if it is a bit unusual to put the cooked macaroni right in the loaf.
Got any more of great grandma's recipes you're gonna post?

Since Great Grandma is no longer around, I can't ask her.....so I need your help. The recipe calls for
1 cup crushed cornflakes
My question is.... would that be 1 cup before crushed, which is only like 101 calories. OR 1 cup already crushed (which is what I have) and that would be 640 caloires. 
What do ya think? I plan to make this today.....

if it says crushed cornflakes then that is crushed before measuring. If it said 1c. cornflakes, crushed- then you crush after measuring.

"You absolutely must eat insoluble fiber foods, and as much as safely possible, but within the IBS dietary guidelines. Treat insoluble fiber foods with suitable caution, and you'll be able to enjoy a wide variety of them, in very healthy quantities, without problem." Please eat IF foods!

LM's right -- crush first, then measure. Any kind of dry cereal would work, saltine crackers or vegetable thins would work too, but there IS a certain flavor that cornflakes contributes.

IN THE OVEN NOW!!
I divided into 4 mini loaf (disposable pans). Shane does not like Salmon...so it will make it hard for me to eat it 4 times...LOL. So, I will take one to my Boss in the morning and also bring the other two to work with me and my Dad will come pick them up for Mom & Dad to have for dinner Mom grew up with this too..so it will be a nice treat. No tricks here!! LOL
I'll let ya know how it turns out.

I know!! ... but it is SO GOOD (as I recall...last time I had it was over 10 years ago...one she started Chemo that was the last of her cooking

I'm gonna try to get the ALL from my Sister...and revise them. I KNOW there is one for her Apple Pie FROM SCRATCH... but I'm sure there is a TON of butter and/or shortening in it. But I'll see....
