How To Make mini salmon wraps
-
Step 1Make sure to rinse your feta under cold water and rinse well or it may be very salty. Dry the feta, then crumble it and set aside to come to room temperature. Place the cream cheese on the counter to soften and come to room temperature before using.
-
Step 2In a large bowl add the cream cheese, crumbled feta and whipping cream. Using your hand mixer, mix until well blended and then set aside until needed.
-
Step 3Add the next eight ingredients and (if using sugar, add now) mix really well on high.
-
Step 4Now you get to add the star of the show. Gently add the smoked salmon into the cheese mixture.
-
Step 5Taste to see if you need to season with more pepper.
-
Step 6Place in the fridge and chill for at least two - three hours; this allows the flavors to blend together.
-
Step 7When ready, scoop the salmon mixture into the lettuce leaves and garnish with green onion and pecans. Gently slice each filled lettuce leaf in half. Place on platter and share with friends. You will want to dig in, here's a napkins for your chin.
