Smoked Salmon Rolls

December 22, 2014 By Tekesha 2 Comments

Smoked Salmon Rolls

Whenever I eat sushi, I always get the rolls that have cream cheese in them – which is weird, because at no other time do I eat cream cheese with my fish. Hmmm, maybe I should start? These low-carb smoked salmon rolls have all the flavor and crunch of the typical Philadelphia Roll, but none of the rice and they can be made in minutes. They’re the perfect appetizer for an impromptu happy hour!

    I love smoked salmon but haven’t had it in ages. This is such a cute idea! We love sushi around here, and the cream cheese ones are always my favorite. Yum!

      Thank you!! I always go right to the cream cheese ones. My husband says I don’t like real sushi because I insist on the rolls with cream cheese, but I don’t care. It feels decadent! 🙂
