This Board Will Be Your Go-To For Everything - Cream Cheese Smoked Salmon Board

The TikTok viral butter board really got my attention until…I was scrolling through Instagram several days ago and saw someone take the butter board trend and use cream cheese and smoked salmon…one of my favorite combinations! I quickly decided to come up with my own version of this deliciousness and I’m sharing it with you today!

It’s really so easy you don’t need a recipe and you can make this board for as many or as few people as you like. There is no cooking required, it makes a beautiful presentation and as I said above, it is so yummy that you won’t even believe it! Baldy doesn’t love smoked salmon the way I do but he really enjoyed this board. I can’t think of a season or an event that this board wouldn’t be perfect for…Christmas morning (definitely happening here), a cocktail party appetizer, drinks on the porch, by the fire, even dinner for 1 or 2! It’s seriously that good!

I hope I’ve convinced you to try my version of a Cream Cheese Smoked Salmon Board…keep scrolling for the how-to! I’m also posting a video on my Instagram tomorrow if you want to actually watch me make this board!

For this board, I used spreadable cream cheese combined with Boursin Cheese spread…it doesn’t matter the proportions because they are both delicious on their own with salmon, so just mix them together however you want. With a table knife, spread the cream cheese/Boursin mixture in blobs, decoratively on the board (this is where the video might help). After you’re satisfied with the amount of cream cheese, sprinkle pieces of cold smoked salmon, finely chopped red onion, chopped fresh dill, capers, a bit of lemon zest, everything bagel seasoning and finish with lemon pepper seasoning. The flavor combination is perfection! Serve with toasted mini bagels, french bread slices, rye bread slices or crackers and a nice bottle of white wine or if you’re serving this for brunch serve with mimosas or Bloody Mary’s!

I would love to know if you make this board…if you do, post a picture on Facebook or Instagram and tag me!
