Please find the full list of ingredients and quantities in the recipe card at the end of the post.

How to Make Cream Cheese and Smoked Salmon Celery Sticks

1. Wash and dry the celery sticks using paper towel then set them aside.

2. Finely chop the smoked salmon into very small pieces then add them to a small bowl. Add the cream cheese and chives to the bowl with the salmon then mix them all together.

3. Using a table knife, fill the celery sticks with the cream cheese and smoked salmon mixture. Press the cream cheese mixture tightly into the grooves of the celery sticks then sprinkle on the sesame seeds.

Recipe Tips

• You can use reduced fat or full fat cream cheese as the carbs are very low in both.
• The smoked salmon should be chopped very finely so it is easier to filling the celery.
• Dried chives or fresh chives can be used. I prefer fresh chives as I find it has stronger flavour.
