Grilled Salmon Spread with Fennel and Chives - 3g Carbs, 1g Fiber, 1g Sugar

From: www.wholefoodsmarket.com

Serve this creamy spread on grilled or toasted bread alongside
grilled vegetables for a filling lunch or enjoy with crudites
and crackers as the start to any summer meal. Use leftover
salmon from making the Grilled Salmon and Lemons with Herbs
and skip the first step all together.
Serves: 8

1 1/2 tsp olive oil, plus more for greasing
1 (1/2-lb ) skin-on boneless salmon fillet
Salt and pepper to taste
1 cup low-fat cottage cheese
3 Tbsp lemon juice
1 to 2 tsp prepared horseradish (optional)
3 Tbsp chopped chives, divided
1/2 fennel bulb, cored and very thinly sliced PLUS
2 Tbsp chopped fennel fronds

Grease grill grates with oil then preheat grill to medium heat. Brush
salmon all over with oil then season with salt and pepper. Arrange
salmon on grill, skin-side up, and cook, gently flipping once, until
golden brown and just cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes total. Set aside
to let cool then remove and discard skin.

Put cottage cheese, lemon juice and horseradish (if using) into a food
processor and pure until smooth; transfer mixture to a large bowl. Flake
salmon into small pieces and add to cottage cheese mixture along with
2 tablespoons of the chives and fennel bulb and fronds. Fold gently to
combine then garnish with remaining 1 tablespoon chives and serve.
