Skinny Smoked Salmon Pinwheels

Check out these simple and delicious Smoked Salmon Pinwheels.

Pretty impressive, huh?

They are adapted from a recipe that caught my eye as I was thumbing through The New Holly Clegg Trim & Terrific Cookbook (Trim and Terrific) (affiliate link) looking for an easy appetizer idea to make to take to friends who invited us for dinner last night.

Skinny Smoked Salmon Pinwheel Appetizers

I don't make appetizers that often and when I do, it's usually the same simple things—a bowl of mixed nuts, a low-fat dip and something for dunking in it, cheese and crackers or chips and salsa or guacamole—so coming up with the idea for these smoked salmon pinwheels took a fair amount of cookbook searching.

Recipe Notes

I made several minor changes: substituting whole wheat lavash from Trader Joes for tortillas; chopped green onion for red onion; and adding fresh dill in the spread and as a garnish for the top of each pinwheel.

These smoked salmon pinwheels were really easy to make. You just mix together the smoked salmon spread ingredients, spread it on the lavash...

Spread the salmon spread evenly on the lavash or tortilla

Roll up like a jelly roll into logs and chill.

Then cut the logs into ⅜-inch thick slices and arrange them on a platter. And if you want, top with a little sprig of fresh dill. That's all there is to it.

Smoked salmon pinwheels are an easy appetizer I can see myself making again. I think the smoked salmon and cheese mixture would be great spread on crackers, crostini or cucumber slices too.
