Notes
Cucumber: I used an English cucumber, but you can also use other types of cucumbers if you prefer.
Cream Cheese: Make sure to soften the cream cheese beforehand so it is easier to spread it out. If you are dairy-intolerant, go ahead and use plain dairy-free cream cheese instead.
Seasoning: I like using everything bagel seasoning, but you can use whichever condiments you prefer (such as onion powder, garlic powder, etc).
Smoked Salmon: If you don’t have smoked salmon, smoked trout will work, or if you prefer to make this vegetarian, you can use thinly sliced bell peppers too.
