Smoked Salmon Canapes


After I spent a super fun two days in Chicago with my friend Jessie, I was too exhausted to cook. Or go to a restaurant for that matter. So, I took a gander at what I had in the fridge, and this is what I came up with.

The result was really great. Light, fresh and filling at the same time. I will definitely make these again, maybe even as an appetizer for a dinner party (not that I throw those frequently, haha!).

The best thing about this is that you can use whatever ingredients you have lying around and whatever sounds good to you. Be inspired!

Ingredients:
*smoked salmon (I grabbed a package from TJ's, I believe around 4 oz)
*1/2 apple, sliced (I used honey crisp or something like that)
*a handful of grape tomatoes, sliced in thirds
*fresh mozzarella cheese
*garlic and herb goat cheese
*crackers (I used rice crackers)
*muli-grain bread, toasted and sliced in fourths
*fresh dill, chopped


Preparation:
*Since I explained what I did with the ingredients, I'm just going to show you the pictures and tell you what ingredients I used on each dish. Experiment and have fun!

Everything is ready to be put together now!
