Often, you are tasked with bringing an appetizer to a party, or you need to make a few different, fun bites for a party that you are hosting yourself. No matter the reason, these cucumber smoked salmon bites will be a yummy addition to the table!

How To Make Delicious, Low Carb and Keto Appetizers

One cool thing that you can do with this appetizer is make fun striped cucumber slices. To do that, you will need a vegetable peeler. Just peel stripes on the cucumber to do that! If you don’t have a peeler, click for a vegetable peeler that I recommend.

When people think about Keto appetizers, that are delicious, they usually can’t think of anything. Many appetizers are served with crackers, bread or other high carb items, which immediately makes them not a low carb appetizer.

Not this appetizer! This Smoked Salmon Cucumber Appetizer is delicious, and it is low carb.

This salmon cucumber appetizer is a great Keto appetizer to serve during a weekend dinner with your family or a fun dinner with friends. This is also a great Thanksgiving dinner appetizer or Christmas appetizer. It is also great to serve for a low carb brunch, if you want to serve something delicious and elegant before the main course.

The idea for making this Low Carb Smoked Salmon Cucumber Appetizer came to me from the very popular bagel, cream cheese and smoked salmon combination. But one day I was thinking — how can i make this combination into a Keto dish? How can I use it to make a low carb appetizer, instead of making it the main brunch dish?

Since cucumbers go so well with smoked salmon, the idea just came to me — how about replacing bagels with cucumbers? I did a test run with these, and everyone at brunch loved them. And then I made them again and again.

And, since we removed the bagel, this appetizer is now low carb, keto, and gluten free, so you can serve it to those with various dietary restrictions.
