Tried these this weekend and took to share...it was a good thing I had 1 early-they were gone shortly thereafter! I did add 1 oz of cream cheese to stiffen it up just a touch. They turned out really well.

Another great recipe, Evelyn. Thank you! I made them for an engagement party and they were good, but the cukes went soft as they released water. I only made them 2-3 hours ahead, but next time I will make them just before serving. Another use for the smoked salmon stuffing would be as a salad topper or even in a wrap! YUM...

Yummy!! I used English cucumbers. These make a wonderful appetizer. (They look so pretty, too!) I did put a little bit of sugar in the salmon mixture, though.... it helped balance the sour from the lime. I garnished w/ parsley (of course!)I'll make these again. Thanx!

Simple appy that impressed the guests. I cut the cucumbers lengthwise and scooped out the seeds. I then cut them into small segments and put the salmon mixture on those pieces. Still bite-size but quicker to prepare for me. Thanks.
