Important Recipe Notes

Use English cucumbers for best results—they’re seedless, less watery, and have a mild flavor that pairs perfectly with salmon.
Smoked salmon works beautifully here, but you can also use cooked flaked salmon if you prefer.
Slice cucumbers evenly for a stable base and prettier presentation—about ¼ inch thick is ideal.
To Prep ahead: You can slice the cucumbers and prep the topping mixture a few hours in advance. Assemble just before serving to keep everything crisp and fresh.
Add extra flavor with a dollop of herbed cream cheese or a sprinkle of fresh dill, capers, or lemon zest.
Low-carb & keto-friendly! These are naturally low in carbs and make a great snack for anyone watching their carb intake.
You can make it dairy-free by swapping cream cheese for mashed avocado or a dairy-free spread.
