I know December is the time people start busting out the boxes of smoked salmon. Here in Alaska, we enjoy it yearlong. This is my Alaskan version of bagels and lox – a toasty bagel, cream cheese, wild Alaskan smoked salmon (homemade), green onions, and a generous amount of lemon squeezed over top. Salmon perfection. Great for breakfast, lunch, snack, light dinner, basically anytime. If that wasn’t convincing enough, it’s quick and easy, too. Sold.
