Salmon & Goat Cheese Puffs

Hi Friends!

Today I’ve got some nice little puffs of deliciousness to share with you! These would make a great party appetizer. They’re super easy to make and come together in a flash, especially if you use leftover salmon so it’s already cooked! But even if you have to cook the salmon, they still don’t take long…
I made these over lunch 🙂

These only require a few ingredients. You could add some roasted red peppers if you want to but I didn’t have any on hand and was too lazy to roast one! These could also be made with wonton wrappers, but I like the cresecent roll dough because it stretches more and it’s easier to fit everything inside if you accidentally scoop too much.

    Ooooh! I’ve been waiting for this recipe from you. Can’t wait to make it. I love anything stuffed into puffy dough.
    Fav appetizers are always crab cakes and my healthified deviled eggs.

    I’m not a salmon fan… but I am a pretty goat cheese puff fan. I’d love to try these with some cannellini beans! Awesome idea with the spinach and artichoke additions!

    One of my favourite appetizers to make is mini phyllo shells filled with feta, roasted cherry tomatoes, tapenade and basil. So easy, but so good!
