If you’ve been reading my blog for a bit, you know how much I adore smoked salmon. Seriously, type in smoked salmon in the search box up on top, and see for yourself. I love it because 1. it’s simply delicious! 2. They add a fancy touch to just about any dish.

Today, we’re dressing up delightful little bites of toasted baguette topped with zesty herby cream cheese and fresh tomato relish. Everything in this recipe compliments each other. Crispy crostini pair beautifully with buttery texture of salmon. Creamy filling infused with capers and dill is soft and doesn’t overpower the delicate salmon flavor. And tomato relish adds freshness to every bite!
