Smoked salmon & brown bread with a twist

Name: Smoked salmon & brown bread with a twist
Prep time: 15 min
Total time: 15 min
Yield: 16 Servings
Ingredients: Wholemeal scones/bread: 8; Full Fat Cream Cheese: 180g; Smoked Salmon: 175g; Horseradish sauce: 1 to 2 teaspoon; Dijon Mustard: 1/2 teaspoon; Fresh chives or dill: 1 tablespoon; Sliced lemon: 1

Features:

Smoked salmon is a good source of Omega 3 fatty acid which is lacking in western diets. Omega 3 is particularly important in relation to diabetes because it has been shown to improve the way cell receptors, including insulin receptors work.

The fat in the salmon & cream cheese slow the rate in which carbs from other foods are released into the blood stream, so this recipe is ideal for parties.

180g Full Fat Cream Cheese
Philadelphia is very good
175g Smoked Salmon
Sliced
1 to 2 teaspoon Horseradish sauce
To taste
1/2 teaspoon Dijon Mustard
1 tablespoon Fresh chives or dill
1 Sliced lemon
For garnish & squeezing over the salmon

Directions

Steps

1 Done	Chop most of the chives or dill, leaving a few pieces for decoration. Mix the cream cheese, horseradish, mustard and chives/dill together in a bowl.
2 Done	Slice the brown scones. Spread the cream cheese mix on the scones (or sliced bread if using). The nutritional value will depend on the type of bread you use.............unsweetened wholemeal bread is the best.
3 Done	Place pieces of the smoked salmon on top of the cream cheese. Decorate with dill or chives. Add lemon wedges (not shown in picture).
4 Done	Note: Smoked salmon contains salt (part of the smoking process) so I would recommend not eating other salty foods on the same day. If you buy brown bread or scones, check the label to see if any type of sugar has been added. See my article http://theartisandiabetic.ie/sugar-artificial-sweeteners/ for a list of names given to sugar.
