One of my favorite things about this time of year is all of the time spent with family and friends. Between tailgates and football games and the upcoming holidays, there are so many opportunities to spend time with my favorite people. Of course, parties and gatherings are so much better with good food. Party food makes hanging out with your favorite people even better. And it shouldn't be something you have to stress about. That's why I love these little smoked salmon bites!
Why You'll Love These Smoked Salmon Bites
These appetizers take only 10 minutes to make but taste like they took hours. They're so easy, only need 5 ingredients, and the cheese spread can even be made in advance. And the taste is so delicious! They look and feel upscale, even though they couldn't be simpler.
How To Make 5 Ingredient Smoked Salmon Bites
- Mix the Boursin, cream cheese, and milk until smooth.
- Spread the mixture on crackers, and top each with a piece of smoked salmon.
- Garnish with some fresh herbs or capers and serve!
Can These Appetizers Be Made Ahead?
You can make the salmon bites and store them in the refrigerator for a few hours, but I wouldn't refrigerate them much longer to avoid soggy crackers. You can mix up the cheese spread a couple days in advance, though! Store it in an airtight container and give it another stir before spreading on the crackers.

Love the simplicity. I typically use sliced cucumbers, cream cheese, smoked salmon and either a small sprig of dill or a couple capers for extra flavor! Mmmmmm
