Smoked Salmon Canapés on Rye Bread
These Smoked Salmon Rye bread Canapés are little beauties, a perfect starter for any meal.
Or simply a lovely drinks canapé! New Years Eve? or Christmas Day or any party really
I love Smoked Salmon especially on Rye Bread
You could also buy Bellini’s in the supermarket too to make it even easier
So why not make your own canapés?
I can never understand why you would buy them?
And everyone needs a smoked salmon Canapé in their repatoire – obvs!!
And not only does it taste amazing it’s also a lovely get ahead snack!
This means you can enjoy the party as well as your guests. Bonus is they also look so pretty and really classy!
Top Tip – add a touch of horseradish sauce – really livens them up!
Winner winner! Smoked Salmon Canapé
I serve them in the lounge with champagne on Christmas Day on a huge white platter, while we open some presents (as they are served cold you don’t need the oven).
Drinkies & Canapés – Smoked Salmon Canapés
You could try them with my Bubbly Bellini, so nice!
Get Ahead Nibbles – Christmas, drinks?
with these get That way you can dedicate your oven space for all the important stuff like the turkey and roast potatoes.
This way the starter is out the way and I just seat my guests then for the main event – so easy and so much less complicated than doing starters at the table.
I also tend to make these Roquefort Bruchetta with peach and honey too…. so good!
And they work perfectly with the Salmon ones.
Party Food & Canapés
I also serve them at summer drinks parties too – that way you can enjoy the good times!
They look stunning on a large white platter…. simply handed round (get the kids to do it)
Or why not makes these Pate Whirls.
Make them ahead and pop them in the freezer and chick them in the oven and bake from frozen?!
Let me know what nibbles you’ll be making? These Canapés are so lovely and homemade – what’s not to love?
I hate all that frozen party stuff , like really hate it.
Why would you buy all that frozen brown food?
When it’s so easy to make your own, so much cheaper and way more tasty.
Start with these lovely Smoked Salmon Canapés, don’t buy them, make them!
Foe those trying to be a tad healthier – Use Philly Extra Light!!
Have fun

These look fabulous- can you say how far ahead of time you can make them?

I literally make them an hour before I need them – that way the rye breads stays nice & fresh – but I would say maybe the morning and fridge them xx

Ooh, I think I’ll try these. I might mix a dollop of creamed horseradish through the cream cheese mixture for a little added ‘bite’.
