Cucumber, goat cheese, smoked salmon and fresh herbs – simple, refreshing and delicious. When preparing for a party we like to have appetizers that are easy for guests to enjoy while also providing options for those with dietary restrictions. These gluten-free snacks are great finger foods that can also be served as a quick snack or weekday lunch. It would be simple to make them paleo by substituting out the goat cheese for a dairy-free spread. You can also mix up the flavor by trying different herbs – thyme, dill, red pepper flakes. Be creative!
One of the best things about this recipe is it literally takes about 5 minutes to pull together, yet looks really classy. It can be made a few hours in advance and stored, covered in the fridge as well.
