These elegant smoked salmon pinwheels are perfect if you want to enjoy lox without the bagels for a low-carb, appetizer.
Ingredients
- 8 ounces thinly sliced cold smoked salmon (I like Nova Lox)
- 4 ounces 1/3 less fat cream cheese
- 1/4 medium cucumber (cut into matchsticks)
- 2 tablespoons finely chopped red onion
- 2 tablespoons capers (drained)
- 1/2 lemon (sliced thin)
Instructions
- Lay a large piece of plastic wrap on a work surface.
- Arrange the slices of salmon in an overlapping fashion to create a rectangle about 6 inches wide by 12 inches long, with one of the longest sides facing you.
- Gently spread the cream cheese over the salmon trying not to dislodge any of the pieces. Lay the cucumber along one side of the rectangle about 1/2 inch from the edge.
- Using the plastic wrap to guide you, roll the salmon up tightly around the cucumber sticks. Refrigerate until firm at least 30 minutes.
- Using a sharp knife, cut the roll into 16 1/2-inch thick slices.
- Sprinkle with red onion and capers and serve with lemon slices.
