Yep, that’s right, I’m doing an appetizer tonight. Hey, it’s easy and yummy, and a perfect recipe to post after a long day spent on an 8 hour round trip bus ride and zoo trip with 6 different classrooms worth of kindergartners. I’m tired, I’m sore, and I’m mentally spent. Yea, we had a blast.
No really, we did! Nicholas said his favorite part was getting to see the tiger roar. Here is a picture of Nick and his buddy Cole posing on top of a dinosaur. Forgive the picture quality; it was taken from my cell phone. I really wanted to take my good camera, but I figured me wandering off to shoot pictures of the animals and scenery while the kids roamed aimlessly in circles saying “are you done taking pictures yet?” might not go over so well.
Ok, so the salmon dip. This stuff, if you like salmon, if REALLY addicting. I could literally take a box of crackers and a bowl of dip, go hide in a corner, and not come back out until I licked the bowl – CLEAN. It’s so yummy, I’ve been known to hide the crackers in the back of the cupboard just so I don’t have to share. And the best part is, it’s super easy to make. Here’s what you’ll need:
Ingredients Needed:
1 15.75 Oz. Can Salmon
1 8 Oz. Package Cream Cheese, Softened
1 tsp Liquid Smoke
1/2 Lemon, Juiced
1/4 Cup Onion, diced
1 tsp Dill (Dried or Fresh Works)
2 Cloves Garlic
Salt and Pepper to Taste
To put this dip together, pull out your food processor and throw in your salmon and cream cheese. Turn it on and mix it until it’s smooth. Now add in your onion, lemon, liquid smoke, garlic, and dill. Process again until smooth. Now all that’s left to do is take a taste and add your salt and pepper according to your liking. And voila. I told you it was simple.
What’s that? You didn’t hear what I said? You’re too busy eating? What do you mean I can’t have a cracker and some of your dip? I see my job here is done. I hope everyone has a great weekend!

Alex, It SHOULD be 1 tsp! Thank you so much for catching that. I put this up about 10 minutes after I walked in the door and I must have typed it out wrong. I've updated it. THANK YOU for catching it! Let me know how you like it and enjoy your baby shower!
Nicole, Thanks so much for stopping by! I stopped by to check out your blog and am now following as well. Where in Texas are you? We lived in Coppell for 6 years (the dallas area) and just moved East about a year and a half ago. I think I left a part of me in Texas that will always be there.
I have tried to make a salmon mousse…but this sounds way better…it has cream cheese of course it is good.
I'll have to give this a try. I love salmon.
Happy SITS Saturday Sharefest.
Oh, yum yum yum!!!! I need this!!! Bookmarking for sure. And I know that no one else in my house would eat it (maaaaaybe my husband, but just maybe) so more for me! Yay!
Sounds like you had a great time with the kids! This dip sounds excellent, love that salmon! I will be following you for more great recipes!
Jen and Pam, Thanks so much for stopping by!
Jen, let me know how you like it!
Pam, I did have a great time! It's so rare that I get to just hang out with my oldest alone. It was really nice to have that time with him.
This looks great! My husband would just have a fit over this! Thanks for sharing!

Thank you Annie!! That is so sweet of you!
OOOOh! I am so trying this! I love smoked seafood dip, but a lot of times the store bought stuff is sweet. I'd rather it not sweet at all and just smokey. Thanks for the recipe!
This sounds delicious! I will definitely have to try it when my husband starts fishing for salmon this summer.
KG – Ok, your husband fishes for salmon? That's just downright cool. You are probably going to have the best smoked salmon dip EVER.
Melissa, I'm with you. Sweet in a seafood dip just doesn't do it for me. Let me know what you think!
This sounds great! One question though, could you let me know how much goes in a can of salmon? I’m in the Netherlands and am not sure we have the same size cans! Thanks
