This supersized smoked salmon sandwich with sprouts, and creamy dill cream cheese is perfect for brunch or afternoon tea. Most grocery stores sell pre-sliced smoked salmon and cream cheese, which makes this recipe super easy! Top it with some homegrown alfalfa sprouts, capers and thinly sliced red onions for an extra layer of delicious crunch!
Smoked salmon is such a treat and I love adding it to my salads and sandwiches! The salmon fish has a high-fat content and is a good source of omega-3 fatty acids!
I love the little smoked salmon tea sandwiches during afternoon teas but often find them gone too fast! The cream cheese dill spread complements the salmon perfectly! So I decided to make it into a full-size sandwich!
You can make this sandwich in just 5 minutes!
Do you like to enjoy your sandwiches open-face or stacked?
Here's What You Will Need
- 4 slices of thick cut bread
- 6 oz sliced smoked salmon
- 6 oz cream cheese, softened at room temperature
- dash of freshly ground black pepper and salt to taste
- 2 springs of dill
- 2 garlic cloves, pressed
- 2 tablespoon capers, drained (optional)
- 2 oz alfalfa sprouts/radish sprouts (learn how to grow alfalfa sprouts at home HERE)
- ¼ cup thinly sliced red onion (optional)
Depending what ingredients I have at home, I often interchange between thinly sliced red onions and alfalfa sprouts. Sometimes I would use a blend of both alfalfa and radish sprouts. I like adding radish sprouts especially because it has a good kick of spice!
In a small bowl, combine the cream cheese, pressed garlic and freshly chopped dill together. Mix well with a fork.
Spread the cream cheese on top of a slice of toast. Top with smoked salmon, thinly sliced red onions, dash of freshly ground black pepper and salt, homegrown alfalfa and radish sprouts, and garnish with dill and capers.
Top your sandwich with another piece of toast if you want to enjoy it stacked. Slice across the center.
Sandwich / Bagel Bar Party
Offer a Toast / Bagel Bar that everyone can enjoy without the need to assemble everything together! It requires zero cooking time. Allow your guests or family members the freedom to build their own sandwiches or bagels!
All you need is to place all your ingredients individually in the center of along the counter or table.
If there are people with food allergies, offer gluten-free, dairy-free or vegan options like gluten-free bread, tofu-based spreads, etc.
This is perfect for brunch parties, bridal showers, baby showers or just a fun weekend together with the kids and family!
