    Smoked Salmon Cream Cheese Croissant. Delicious, quick and easy to make in less than 5 minutes. Perfect for breakfast or lunch!

    This smoked salmon and cream cheese croissant is one of my quick and simple recipes. It's so delicious thanks to the chewy texture of the smoked salmon, soft cream cheese, fresh dill over a flakey croissant. I could honestly have this on a daily basis!

    Smoked Salmon Cream Cheese Croissant

    I almost questioned if I should even produce a recipe for it because it's so simple! But it's too good not to share!

    You can also swap out the cream cheese for a dairy free version or an herbed version for extra flavour!

    Now I know there are many online smoked salmon croissants recipes but this one is really easy to make!

    When I cook with seafood

    Whenever I purchase seafood, I do my best to buy sustainable seafood and not farmed fish (read why by scrolling down). One way to identify sustainable seafood is by checking the package for a logo that will say "Certified Sustainable". Below is a picture of Movenpick's Wild Smoked Salmon and in the bottom right corner, there is a MSC logo which is one of the organization's among several that certify sustainable seafood.

    MSC

    Why it's important to avoid farmed fish

    1. Farmed fish contain little nutritional benefits, especially Omega-3 fatty acids as fish naturally receive these nutrients from aquatic plant life
    2. Farmed fish are fed corn or soy promoting the growth of unhealthy. amounts of incorrect fatty acids. Naturally fish are carnivores and they should be eating other fish.
    3. Farmed fish are given antibiotics which can cause "antibiotic-resistant disease in humans".
    4. They experience stress and pain of being confined and are killed in inhumane ways.
    5. They are filled with disease and this spreads to the ocean infecting wild fish.
    6. Farms clean their waters using concentrated chemicals and toxins but those flow back into the ocean damaging natural ecosystems.
    7. Farmed fish live in their own poop! Yuck.
    8. Fish farms are environmentally unsustainable.
      (Sourced from "Mind Body Green")

    So before you cook this recipe, please consider the environment and your own health by choosing sustainable seafood.
