Bagels With Avocado Spread Smoked Salmon Recipes

Steps:

• Cut avocado lengthwise around pit, twist halves to separate; spear pit with a knife and twist and pull to remove; gently scoop out flesh with a spoon; transfer to a medium sized bowl.
• Mash avocado, stir in onion, lemon juice, salt and pepper.
• Cut bagel halves crosswise to make 8 pieces; spread evenly with avocado mixture.
• Top with salmon slices and garnish with thin onion rings if desired.

Steps:

• Arrange smoked salmon, thinly sliced, sliced red onions, 2 leaf lettuce, 4 slices tomatoes, hard boiled eggs, lemon and parsley sprigs on a nice pretty plate. Add cream cheese in the middle with spreading knife.
• Fill bowls with green and black olives, capers, chopped green onions, thinly sliced green and red peppers for garnish.
• Toast bagels, bagels in a basket lined with a cloth napkin.
• Optional! Whip cream cheese until soft and fold in chives or dill for spreading on the bread.

Steps:

• A short time before serving, mash avocado and add lemon juice. Season with pepper and only a bit of salt, as there will be enough in the lox. Split bagels and spread each half with avocado. Top with lox. Put onion, tomato, and capers (if using) on bottom half, then set top half of sandwich in place. Serve at once.

Steps:

• Beat cream cheese, lemon juice, milk, green onions, hickory smoke and only one seasoning with mixer until light and fluffy.
• Beat in salmon.
• Chill several hours for flavors to blend.
• Spread on toasted bagels, bagel chips, French bread slices, crackers, pumpernickel or rye bread.

Steps:

• Season the salmon filet with the black pepper. Set a small skillet over low/medium heat, add the olive oil, salmon filet, shallot and garlic and cook, turning the salmon once for about 10 minutes. The salmon should be just cooked through.
• Transfer the salmon, including the shallot and garlic, to a small mixing bowl and allow to cool for 10 minutes, then cover loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate until chilled.
• When the salmon is fully chilled, use a fork to flake the fish apart. Remove the pit and scoop the avocado flesh right into the bowl, add the lemon juice and mash all together well. Stir in the cream cheese, chives, dill, salt and cayenne and mix well.
• Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. Serve with crackers, bagel chips or toast points.

Steps:

• In small bowl, combine cream cheese, scallions, dill and milk.
• Spread one-fourth of the cheese mixture onto bottom half of each bagel.
• Top cheese mixture evenly with tomato slices; drape 1 smoked salmon slice over each portion of tomatoes.
• Top each portion of salmon with 1/2 teaspoon each of the onion and capers, then 1 remaining bagel half.
