I have always loved the idea of bagels and lox. It wasn’t until I first tasted “bagels and lox” that I immediately came up with my own replacement. This recipe for smoked salmon, chive cream cheese, freeze-dried dill and capers go perfectly together on a cucumber. It is a light, savory and refreshing bite!
(Serves 4 ) Salmon Snackers:
1 long english cucumber
2 ounces smoked salmon
6 tbps chive and onion cream cheese (I use the Light Chive and Onion Cream Cheese, but don’t feel that you have to!)
2 tsp fresh or feeze-dried dill
Cut off ends of cucumber. Slice 12 rounds of cucumber, each a half inch thick. Save remaining cucumber for future use. Spread 1/2 tbsp of cream cheese on each cucumber slice. Slice 2 oz. of smoked salmon into 12 even-ish pieces, place on top of cucumber slices. Sprinkle dill over each cucumber slice.
Plan on 3 pieces per guest and enjoy!
