Smoked Salmon and Cream Cheese Spread

Made this delicious spread to go along with all of the sourdough bread I’ve been making lately. This is great as a standalone spread, or used as a dressing for salads, and works greats as a sandwich spread. The possibilities are deliciously endless.

Ingredients

• 4 (8oz) packs of cream cheese, room temperature

• 3 (3oz) packs of smoked salmon, chopped

• 1/4 cup cilantro, finely chopped

• 1 green onion, rough chopped

• 1 TBSP course ground garlic

• 1 tsp Himalayan pink salt

• 1/2 tsp black pepper

• 1 whole lemon, juiced

Directions

In a large mixing bowl add room temperature cream cheese, chopped salmon, cilantro, green onions, and spices. Mix ingredients until just incorporated. Add lemon juice and stir. Using a hand held blender, mix on medium to low speed for about 2 minutes until spread is thoroughly mixed and everything is well incorporated. Place spread in a glass covered bowl and chill for about 30 minutes. Serve chilled as a spread for breads, crackers, or deli meats.
