Deliciously savory smoked salmon pinwheels rolled up with a flavorful chive and dill cream cheese and tons of fresh spinach. This easy, healthy appetizer comes together in just 10 minutes for the ultimate party food or snack!

Provided by Monique of AmbitiousKitchen.com

Categories     Appetizer     Seafood     Snack

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 burrito style spinach wraps (or can use any burrito size wrap)
4-6 ounces cream cheese
1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill
½ tablespoon chives
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
2-3 cups spinach
4-6 ounces smoked salmon

Steps:

  • In a small bowl combine cream cheese, dill, chives, and garlic powder. Mix until well-incorporated and creamy.
  • Lay out both wraps and evenly spread the cream cheese onto each one, leaving about a half inch of room around the edges. Spread the cream cheese out to the edge on one side, as you'll use this side to "seal" the pinwheel.
  • Evenly distribute the spinach between your two tortillas, followed by the smoked salmon.
  • Tightly roll up each wrap, tucking in the ends as you go. It's important to roll these as tightly as possible so that the pinwheels stay together when cut.
  • With a small serrated knife cut the edges off of each wrap, and then cut each one into ½ inch rounds. You should get about 14-16 pinwheels, 7-8 per wrap.
  • Feel free to assemble as-is or stick a toothpick into each pinwheel to serve. Serves 4.

SMOKED SALMON PINWHEELS



Smoked Salmon Pinwheels image

In the old days, I would go out to the buffets and eat my weight in smoked salmon! I especially liked it served traditionally, with capers, cream cheese and onions. The only problem was that the capers and onions always fell off the fork when I tried to eat it all together. This recipe combines all my favorite ingredients in an easy-to-make and easy-to-serve party appetizer!

Categories     appetizer

Time 1h20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

8 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons diced red onion
1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil leaves
8 ounces sliced smoked salmon (we recommend Nova, but you make use the saltier lox)
2 tablespoons small capers, drained
1 seedless cucumber, with peel, sliced into rounds the size of crackers

Steps:

  • Combine the cream cheese, lemon juice, red onion, and basil in a bowl until completely blended.
  • On a piece of waxed paper, arrange the smoked salmon slices in a rectangle about 3 inches wide and 12 inches long, slightly overlapping each piece. (If the salmon slices are cut irregularly, simply piece them together like a puzzle.)
  • Spread a thin layer of the cream cheese mixture on the salmon, sprinkle with the capers, and roll up like a jellyroll.
  • Refrigerate for 1 hour to firm, then cut into 1/2-inch slices. Place each pinwheel atop a cucumber round to serve.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the quality of your ingredients, the better your pinwheels will taste. Use fresh salmon, cream cheese, and herbs.
  • Don't overmix the filling: Overmixing the filling will make it tough. Mix it just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a sharp knife to cut the pinwheels: A sharp knife will give you clean, even cuts.
  • Chill the pinwheels before serving: Chilling the pinwheels will help them set and make them easier to handle.
  • Serve the pinwheels with your favorite dipping sauce: Cream cheese and salmon pinwheels are delicious with a variety of dipping sauces, such as tartar sauce, cocktail sauce, or horseradish sauce.
