Smoked Salmon Fat Bombs
Fat bombs are like energy balls made from high-fat low-carb ingredients, but adding some protein into the mix makes it tastier and heartier too. Case in point, these salmon fat bombs. To make this, combine the ingredients, roll them into balls, and coat with bagel seasoning.

Salmon Gratin
If you’re looking for another meatless replacement for the classic potato gratin, this recipe is worth giving a try. It uses a trick that makes the salmon so soft it melts in your mouth. All the ingredients complement well, and they come together for a creamy, satisfying dish.
Salmon Party Rolls
Smoked salmon, avocado and herb cream cheese — if this recipe’s three main ingredients don’t make you drool, wait until you see how pretty these rolls look. They taste better if served chill, so make them in advance and refrigerate them in a tightly sealed container for up to three days before serving. Garnish with dill for better flavor.
