Smoked Salmon Pinwheels

Ingredients

Salmon

  • 1 side of salmon, skin removed and fully deboned
  • Seasoning of choice

Filling

  • 2 packages (8 oz each) cream cheese, softened
  • 2 cups shredded cheese
  • 1 cup chopped bacon bits
  • 2 tbsp chives, finely chopped
  • Season to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the filling
    In a bowl, mix the softened cream cheese, shredded cheese, bacon bits, chives, and seasoning until fully combined. Set aside.
  2. Trim the salmon
    Trim the salmon side into a uniform rectangle so it rolls evenly and cooks consistently.
  3. Spread the filling
    Evenly spread the filling mixture over the surface of the salmon, leaving about ½ inch clear along one long edge.
  4. Roll and tie
    Starting from the filled edge, roll the salmon tightly into a log.
    Secure with two pieces of butcher’s twine, spaced evenly.
  5. Cut into pinwheels
    Slice the roll in half (or into individual pinwheels if you prefer smaller portions).
    Lightly season the outside of each piece.
  6. Prepare for the smoker
    Place the pinwheels on pre-soaked cedar planks.
  7. Smoke
    Smoke at 250°F (121°C) for about 60 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 140–145°F in the thickest part.
  8. Rest and serve
    Rest for 5 minutes, remove the twine, and serve warm.

Carnivore JT tip

For tighter pinwheels and cleaner slices, place the rolled salmon in the fridge for 15–20 minutes before tying and cutting.

Salmon Mousse Carnivore Cheese Crisps

This high-protein, carnivore-friendly appetizer combines crispy baked cheese with a rich, creamy salmon mousse. It’s perfect for entertaining, snacking, or as a nutrient-dense bite on a low-carb, high-fat diet.

Ingredients

For the Cheese Crisps:

  • 4 oz cheese (sliced into small, even squares — cheddar, provolone, or mozzarella work great)

For the Salmon Mousse:

  • 2 cans of salmon (drained)
  • 1/2 cup full-fat Greek yogurt
  • 4 green onions, chopped and divided
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Instructions

1. Make the Cheese Crisps

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Place the cheese slices on a parchment-lined baking sheet, leaving space between each slice as they will spread.
  3. Bake for 15–20 minutes, or until the cheese turns crispy and golden brown.
  4. Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely — they will continue to firm up as they cool.

2. Make the Salmon Mousse

  1. In a food processor, combine:
    • 2 cans of salmon,
    • Greek yogurt,
    • 8 oz cream cheese,
    • 1 tsp lemon juice,
    • 1/2 tsp salt,
    • Half of the chopped green onions.
  2. Blend until smooth and creamy. Scrape down the sides as needed to ensure an even texture.

3. Assemble

  1. Once the cheese crisps are cooled, top each with a dollop of the salmon mousse using a spoon or piping bag.
  2. Sprinkle the remaining green onions over the top for a fresh, flavorful finish.

Serving Tips

  • Serve chilled or at room temperature.
  • Great as a party platter, post-workout snack, or quick lunch bite.
  • Store extra mousse in the fridge for up to 3 days and crisps in an airtight container to maintain crispness.

Enjoy your Salmon Mousse Carnivore Cheese Crisps — crunchy, creamy, and packed with protein!
