Ingredients

Philadelphia Original Cream Cheese, softened

Fresh dill, finely chopped

Fresh lemon juice

Salt

Black pepper

Dave’s Killer Bread 21 Whole Grains and Seeds, toasted

Smoked salmon, thinly sliced

Red onion, thinly sliced

Capers, drained

Fresh chives, finely chopped

Instructions

Place the softened cream cheese into a medium bowl and stir until smooth

Add the chopped dill and fresh lemon juice and mix until evenly combined

Season lightly with salt and black pepper and taste to adjust balance

Toast the bread slices until golden and crisp but not dry

Spread an even layer of the cream cheese mixture over each toast

Arrange the smoked salmon gently on top of the spread

Add sliced red onion and capers evenly across the toast

Finish with a sprinkle of fresh chives and serve immediately

Notes

Use cream cheese at room temperature to ensure a smooth and spreadable texture

Choose high quality smoked salmon with a silky texture and mild smoky aroma

Avoid oversalting since capers and smoked salmon already contain natural salt

Serve immediately after assembling to keep the toast crisp
