  • 3 tablespoons of pesto or 1/4 cup of fresh herbs chopped

Instructions

  1. Combine the softened cream cheese, pesto, and chopped green onions, mix well, and add the rough, fully chopped smoked salmon or tuna and mix well. Taste and season with salt and pepper if necessary.
  2. Wash and dry the tomatoes, cut them into slices discarding the endsPlace all the slices on a plate or cutting board and sprinkle with a dash of table salt. This is going to enhance the flavor of tomatoes. Only do one side.
