  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Zest and halve lemon. Cut one half into wedges and juice the other half.

    Cut potatoes into large evenly-sized chunks.

    Finely crush crackers. Get the kids involved! With supervision, have them help crush the crackers.

    Stem and mince dill.

    Pat salmon dry and season flesh side with 1/4 tsp. salt and 1/4 tsp. pepper.

  2. 2

    Make the Mashed Potatoes

    Bring a large pot with potato chunks covered by water to a boil.

    Once boiling, cook until fork-tender, 14-18 minutes.

    Remove from burner. Reserve 1/2 cup potato cooking water. Drain potatoes in a colander/strainer and return to pot.

    Add half the cream cheese (reserve remaining for sauce), garlic salt, sour cream, 1/4 cup reserved potato cooking water, 1/4 tsp. salt, and a pinch of pepper. Mash until combined.

    If too thick, add additional reserved potato cooking water, 1 Tbsp. at a time, until desired consistency is reached. Cover and set aside.

    While potatoes cook, continue recipe.

  3. 3

    Start the Green Beans

    Trim ends off green beans, if necessary.

    Place green beans on prepared baking sheet and toss with 2 tsp. olive oil, 1/4 tsp. salt, and a pinch of pepper. Spread into a single layer.

    Roast in hot oven, 10 minutes.

  4. 4

    Finish the Green Beans and Salmon

    Carefully remove baking sheet from oven.

    Push green beans to one side of baking sheet and evenly top with Parmesan. Baking sheet will be hot! Use a utensil.

    Place salmon, skin-side down, on now-empty side of sheet. Evenly top flesh side of salmon with 2 tsp. olive oil, then crackers, pressing gently to adhere.

    Roast in hot oven until green beans are tender, topping is golden-brown, and salmon reaches a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees, 9-11 minutes.

    While green beans and salmon roast, continue recipe.

  5. 5

    Make Sauce and Finish Dish

    In a microwave-safe bowl, combine remaining softened cream cheese, 2 Tbsp. water, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Cover with a damp paper towel.

    Microwave covered until melted, 30-60 seconds.

    Carefully remove from microwave. Stir in dill, lemon zest (to taste), and 2 tsp. lemon juice until smooth and combined. If too thick, add water, 1 tsp. at a time, until desired consistency is reached. Set aside.

    Plate dish as pictured on front of card, topping salmon with sauce. Squeeze lemon wedges over dish to taste. Bon appétit!
