Sunday Brunch On A Cuke

by Katie on September 23, 2009

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!

Salmon Dill Snackers

(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!

Katie,

This sounds so delicious. Christ, I wish I loved salmon. Could I substite bologna for salmon?

I can spell bologna but not substitute.

maybe thin sliced ham or prosciutto instead of lox?
