Ingredients
  

  • 2 packages gravlax
  • 1 box butter crackers
  • 1 English cucumber
  • 4 oz cream cheese room temperature
  • ¼ cup whole grain mustard
  • 2 oz goat cheese
  • 4 tablespoons capers
  • 3 tablespoons sweet Thai chili sauce
  • 1 tablespoon dill
  • 4 tablespoons red onion thinly sliced

Instructions
 

  • Slice the cucumber at a 45-degree angle to create 1/4-inch thick slices. Arrange the crackers and cucumber slices on separate plates. Cut the gravlax into 1x1 inch strips.
  • Spread about 1/2 teaspoon of goat cheese on half of the crackers and cucumber slices. Spread about 1/2 teaspoon of cream cheese on the remaining half.
  • For the New York Bagel version, on crackers and cucumber slices with cream cheese, add two to three capers and a few slices of red onion.
  • For the Sweet Thai Chili option, on the crackers and cucumbers with cream cheese, drizzle 1/4 teaspoon of sweet Thai chili sauce. To half of these, add a piece of gravlax, leaving the other half plain for a fish-free option.
  • For the Whole Grain Mustard & Goat Cheese combo, on the crackers and cucumber slices with goat cheese, spread 1/4 teaspoon of whole grain mustard. Top with a rolled piece of gravlax and sprinkle on dill to taste.
