The perfect party bite! These creamy, salty snacks are quick to make and always fly off the appetizer table. Smoked salmon, cream cheese, and briny peppers are the perfect match!

Instructions

  1. Make a small incision - lengthwise - on the side of each pepper. Very carefully remove the seeds and discard them. Thoroughly dry the peppers with paper towels; set aside.
  2. In a large bowl beat together the cream cheese, Greek yogurt, dill, lemon zest, salt, and pepper; mix well until completely combined (feel free to use a handheld mixer if you have one available).
  3. Use a small spoon to scoop 2 teaspoons of the filling into each pepper. Wrap a thin, long strip of salmon around each pepper and secure with a toothpick. Garnish with dill and lemon zest, if desired. Serve at once or keep cold in the fridge until needed.

Notes

  • This recipe may be made 2 hours ahead of time, covered, and kept in the fridge until needed. You may use reduced-fat cream cheese and yogurt, but they will be slightly less rich/creamy.
