Ingredients

4 salmon fillets
8 ounces of crabmeat drained well I used claw meat
4 ounces cream cheese softened use regular not whipped
1 large egg whipped
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
1 1/2 cups baby spinach
1 tablespoon roasted red peppers diced
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese or your favorite cheese
1 teaspoon old bay seasoning
sea salt and black pepper to taste
2 tablespoons seasoned bread crumbs

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees
cook spinach in a little bit of water till fully cooked, take off the heat and allow to cool
When spinach is cool squeeze out all of the water from the spinach (excess water will make the stuffing loose)
in a mixing bowl add in the softened cream cheese, mayonnaise, egg and old bay seasoning. Whip together until well blended.
fold in the spinach, roasted peppers, shredded mozzarella and crab meat (make sure crab meat has been well-drained, squeezing out any excess water). Mix gently and if the mixture is too loose you may add a little bread crumb to tighten it up.
place salmon on a baking sheet and season with salt and pepper
portion stuffing out and place on top of salmon fillet, then sprinkle breadcrumbs on top.
pour a little water on the baking dish to help keep the salmon moist while it's cooking
cook salmon at 350 degrees for 18-22 minutes. salmon should be done but not overcooked
serve with your favorite sides
