Smoked Salmon Roll Ups (Printable)

Smoked salmon with cream cheese and fresh herbs rolled into elegant bite-sized pieces. Quick no-cook appetizer.

# What You'll Need:

→ Main Components

01 - 7 oz smoked salmon slices
02 - 3.5 oz cream cheese, softened
03 - 2 large flour tortillas or gluten-free wraps

→ Seasonings

04 - 1 tablespoon fresh dill, finely chopped
05 - 1 tablespoon fresh chives, finely chopped
06 - 1 teaspoon lemon juice
07 - Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

# How to Make It:

01 - In a small bowl, combine cream cheese, dill, chives, lemon juice, and black pepper. Mix until smooth and fully incorporated.
02 - Lay the tortillas flat on a clean surface. Evenly spread the cream cheese mixture over each tortilla, covering the entire surface.
03 - Arrange smoked salmon slices evenly over the cream cheese layer, ensuring full coverage from edge to edge.
04 - Starting from one edge, tightly roll up each tortilla to form a compact log. Apply gentle pressure to ensure tight rolling.
05 - Wrap the rolls in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. This step firms the rolls for cleaner, more uniform slices.
06 - Using a sharp knife, slice each roll into 1-inch pieces. Arrange on a serving platter. Garnish with additional dill or chives if desired. Serve chilled.

# Expert Hacks:

01 -
  • The combination looks impressive but requires absolutely no cooking
  • You can assemble them hours ahead and slice right before serving
02 -
  • A serrated knife works better than a straight blade for cutting through these without squishing them
  • Let the cream cheese soften completely or it will tear your tortillas while spreading
03 -
  • Use the sharpest knife you own and wipe it clean between slices for the prettiest presentation
  • Let the rolls sit at room temperature for ten minutes before serving so the flavors pop
