Mash the trout with a fork until it is broken into very small pieces.

Recipe Notes
** NOTE: I purchased some pretty good smoked trout at Trader Joe’s at a very reasonable price. If you can’t find it, any smoked fish will work. Also, Trader Joe’s has a lemon infused olive oil that would work instead of the blood orange, but any high quality olive oil will work.
