Salmon Sandwich with a Twist

After days of eating all the special meals that you were preparing for hours or even days, you want to eat something simple and easy to prepare, but also delicious and refreshing.

How was your Christmas? Did you eat A LOT? I did and I am not ashamed of it. I may even say that I ate a bit too much. But this is how I was raised. When it comes to Christmas, my family eats a lot and then we rest so we can eat a bit more.

After days of eating all the special meals that you were preparing for hours or even days, you want to eat something simple and easy to prepare, but also delicious and refreshing. If so, make this sandwich. It may look like another sandwich with salmon, but it’s not. It has a magical addition which changes everything – slices of apple and pistachios. Once again, you may think that there’s nothing special in it, but… you will be wrong again. I had salmon with cream cheese, apple and pistachios in one of the best Italian restaurants I experienced in Sicily and it was mind blowing. I made something similar as I could not stop thinking about it. Such a simple ingredients but it makes you happy.

The Recipe

YOU WILL NEED:

  • bread, preferably sourdough
  • smoked salmon
  • apple slices
  • cream cheese
  • pistachios
Spread cream cheese on a slice of bread. Place thin slices of apple on it, then smoked salmon, sprinkle with roasted pistachios.

Enjoy, Marta

    Now this is my kind of breakfast! So simple and lots of great protein and flavors. Love the apple slices. Looks like your kitty likes the breakfast as well. How did you get her to sit there so patiently while you took the picture (all of which are beautiful BTW).

      I like my cats, they always want to pretend that they are sleeping next to a main food action.

    Yeah, it’s also typically portuguese to eat your weight in food during Christmas. I did indulge a bit, eating stuff I do not usually consume at any other time of the year, which is something I tend to do at Christmas and NYE… now I feel like a beached whale, but am ready for round too in a few days eheheheh

      I hope to move to Portugal one day, it’s my favorite country in Europe and now I know that there’s more reasons 🙂
