Smoked Salmon Shooters
I was served a memorable snack at Blog Brûlée last month that inspired today’s recipe for Smoked Salmon Shooters. It was Cured Salmon with Skyr served in small mason jars presented by Siggi’s Dairy. It was so good that I HAD to recreate a recipe post to share.
I’m all about making your holiday entertaining a breeze with easy holiday recipes. These gorgeous little appetizers are impressive to serve, but very simple to throw together. Ya’ll know I’m all about healthy and easy!
Smoked salmon is one of my all-time favorite appetizer ingredients. It’s full of flavor, loaded with heart-healthy fats and muscle-building protein and adds beautiful color to a dish. Another favorite yogurt & salmon appetizer on the blog are these Yogurt & Chive Potato Rounds with Smoked Salmon & Capers. They would also make a nice addition to your holiday spread.
Serve these smoked salmon shooters with bagel chips or toasted pumpernickel bread slices. Make sure you have spoons handy so your guests can just scoop them out and spread on top. You can also enjoy these as a gluten-free appetizer and eat them without the bread and chips. They are amazing all on their own. I don’t know about you, but I’m ready for a party!
How fun are these smoked salmon shooters to serve?!

These look absolutely amazing! My 12 yo son LOVES smoked salmon-these would be a great after school snack too! Can’t wait to do some shots 🙂
Thank you so much EA!
That is a gorgeous presentation!! I love smoked salmon too!
The presentation of these shooters is GORGEOUS. I wish it was safe to host a party right now — these would be on the menu! For now, I’ve just been making them as snacks for my kids. It feels like a waste to give them my good smoked salmon, but if it gets some protein in them, I guess I can’t complain!
Thanks Hannah! I love it! That’s an epic kids snack! 🙂
These look yummy. I haven’t made them yet. I’m planning them for a bridal shower next month. What size are your glass shooters? Are they 2 oz.? I’m looking online to buy those first.
Hi Nancy! The 2oz and 3oz glasses work well for this recipe. I have the 2oz glasses. I hope that you enjoy them!
