Smoked Salmon New Potatoes Recipe

Prep: 20 min. Cook: 20 min.

Yield: 18 Servings

20 20 40

Ingredients

36 small red potatoes (about 1-1/2 pounds)
1 package (8 ounces) reduced-fat cream cheese, cubed
2 packages (3 ounces each) smoked salmon or lox
2 tablespoons chopped green onion
2 teaspoons dill weed
2 teaspoons lemon juice
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
Fresh dill sprigs

Directions

Place the potatoes in a large saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil. Cook, covered, for 15-20 minutes or until tender.
Meanwhile, in a food processor, combine the cream cheese, salmon, onion, dill, lemon juice, salt and pepper. Cover and process until smooth; set aside.
Drain potatoes and immediately place in ice water. Drain and pat dry with paper towels. Cut a thin slice off the bottom of each potato to allow it to sit flat. With a melon baller, scoop out a small amount of potato (discard or save for another use).
Pipe or spoon salmon mixture into potatoes. Garnish with dill sprigs. Yield: 3 dozen.
