These keto salmon rollups give you all the flavor of a traditional salmon bagel without the carbs! If you’ve been looking for a way to enjoy the flavors of a salmon bagel in a keto-friendly way, these keto salmon rollups are worth trying out. They make a great snack or serve them up as a canape when you have friends over.
Making these rollups is easy. All you need to do is make the filling containing cream cheese, red onion, capers, fresh chives, and lemon zest and mix it together. Once the mix is ready, layout thin strips of salmon (lox) onto your bench, place a spoonful of mixture onto each piece of salmon, and then roll them up. For extra zest, sprinkle on some fresh lemon juice before serving.
These salmon rollups are not only tasty but they’re also packed full of goodness. The salmon provides you with healthy omega-3 fatty acids, and the cream cheese gives you protein and important amino acids.
While we think this recipe is great as it is, if you want to make it more of a meal than a snack, you can easily add some scrambled egg or spinach to the rollups. Either way, they’ll taste great and are sure to become one of your new go-to keto-friendly recipes.
