You may not like cooking, and I hear ya. That’s why I’m always pumped to share recipes with you that don’t require much, if any cooking! And with the holidays coming fast, you need some new yummy ideas that won’t take you all day to prep and make! Introducing my Everything Bagel Smoked Salmon Toasts!
**Heads-up!!! I was given free samples from Fulton Fish Market, but this is not a paid post and opinons are all my own. I only talk about brands I like, trust and respect. Guaranteed!
Getting Toasty
I love a good appetizer, don’t you? Sometimes, appetizers are all I need. And I love when my appetizer has the perfect mix of crunchiness, savoriness and saltiness. Toasts are where it’s at because they allow you to make that perfect mix! These Toasts are no exception! Pile up goodies on a piece of toast and life is good! And get this, the only cooking you’ll be doing, is TOASTING. Is that even cooking? 😉
Smoked Salmon is Here
Smoked salmon used to be something I would only order at really good restaurants. Simply because it was the only place I could get it. Thankfully my hankering for smoky fish is easily cured with a simple click of the button on my laptop or with a short walk down the street to my local grocery store. But not all smoked salmon tastes good. Trust me.
Buy Brands You Trust
Here’s what I know, it’s worth it to spend an extra couple of dollars to get your hands on the really good stuff. You’ll taste the difference. And go with a brand you trust! I recently had the opportunity to try a variety of awesome fish from the fabulous people at Fulton Fish Market. I love that they can tell you exactly where their fish came from as well as the best way to store and cook it! Plus, it’s super easy to find what you want…and then have it delivered to your door! Eating seafood has never been so easy! (P.S. – Here’s the smoked salmon I love!) Want to try it for yourself?

Now, We Eat!
Once you’ve ordered your smoked salmon, it’s time to get down to business. If you’re buying the good smoked salmon, might I also recommend you buy the good bread and cream cheese too? Again, that extra dollar goes a long way, most of the time. Especially when it comes to this appetizer! So go ahead, make it and tell me what you think!
