Super easy to whip up, gluten-free, keto friendly, crisp, creamy, and delicious.

The first step is to prepare the flavoured cream cheese if you do not have the pre-mixed store-bought version.

Mix the softened cream cheese with the diced chives and a clove of crushed garlic.

Cut your cucumber into rounds about 1cm in depth.

Pat both sides gently with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.

Using a pre-mixed flavoured cream cheese with garlic and chives or a homemade version, spread the top of each cucumber slice with a generous amount of the cheese.

Add a chunk of smoked salmon.

Then a dot of aioli dressing.

Onto the aioli crisis cross two small pieces of chives for a garnish. 

Plate.

Cover with glad wrap plastic film, and place in refrigerator until serving.
