Celery and Smoked Salmon Cream Cheese Dip
An easy dip that you can serve with celery for a party or a quick get-together. The smoked salmon cream cheese is great on other things too!
Ingredients
- 8 oz. package of cream cheese, allow to sit on the counter for at least 20 minutes
- 4 oz. package of refrigerated smoked salmon, chopped
- 2 green onions, sliced thinly
- pepper to taste
- 1/2 lemon
- 8 celery stalks, cut into thirds and cut into thirds long ways into sticks
Instructions
- Add cream cheese, smoked salmon and green onions to a medium-sized mixing bowl. Mix together using a metal or wooden spoon ensuring the smoked salmon is evenly distributed throughout the cream cheese.
- Add pepper to taste. Take the 1/2 lemon and squeeze twice over the mixture (making sure to not allow lemon seeds to fall in) and mix again.
- Serve as a dip. Dip can be prepared the night before.
Cook's Notes:
- This can also be served as stuffed celery. Do not cut into sticks and stuff the celery using a butter knife.
- For this recipe, I prefer the plain smoked salmon you find in your grocer's refrigerated seafood section. I think it tasted much better than sockeye wild (smoked) salmon. Do not use the non-refrigerated smoked salmon products for this recipe.
