Smoked Salmon For Life

So this meal, I mean… do you ever eat something and you just take a bite and there are. no. words. for the joy you experience? I don’t know why, I don’t know how, but this meal is that for me. I eat it for breakfast, I eat it for lunch, and sometimes, if they day is right, I’ll have it for din din too!

Salmon, salmon, salmon. Smoked, smoked, smoked.

And the best thing is how easy-peasy it is! Not a ton of ingredients, it still feels fancy AF, and rolling it at just 334 calories for a serving, it’s not too shabby on the health spectrum either (just one little bitty tinsy weensy ounce of cream cheese).

I will say, I usually have this on a dark rye bread but on a whim, I tried this Dave’s bread today and I am sold! It was even more heavenly than it already was.

So! Go ahead and toast your slice of bread, dollop an ounce of cream cheese on there and smear it all around, do a little sprinkle of garlic salt across it, a 1/4 tsp of dill weed, an ounce (or so) of cucumber, and two ounces of smoked salmon!

And then nom!

That’s literally all you do. It takes like 5 min.

Also, I’m extra so I like to cut the cucumber on an angle so it’s extra fancy.

There are so many pictures in this post. But I’m just so excited about this recipe.

So here’s one more of the finished delicious product.

Recipe:

2 oz – Smoked Salmon, store-bought or homemade (stay tuned for my homemade smoked salmon adventure)
1 oz – Cream Cheese (or less)
1oz – Cucumber
1 slice – Bread of your choice (but I highly recommend the DAVES bread pictured above or a dark rye)
1/4 tsp – Dill Weed
1 sprinkle – Garlic Salt (I tried to measure it but it was such a small amount that I chuckled quietly to myself and gave up)

Step 1 – Toast bread.
Step 2 – Spread cream cheese on toast.
Step 3 – Sprinkle seasonings on top of cream cheese.
Step 4 – Add cucumber slices.
Step 5 – Add 2 oz of smoked salmon.

1 Serving – 334 calories if made with Dave’s bread and full fat cream cheese.

Also yes, that’s me holding a big ol’ salmon in the cover photo. My brother is a guide! More on that later but if you wanna go fishing up in New York, give him a shout here!
