I could write an ode to smoked salmon dip at this point. My whole family has fallen in love with this snack. We dip vegetables into it, crackers, and even chips. I’ve smeared it on a bagel and eaten it off a spoon straight from the fridge. You can not go wrong with this one, my friends.


Smoked Salmon Dip Recipe
We love the smoked trout dip at Hudson29 so much, it inspired me to figure out how to make smoked salmon dip at home for unlimited access. This recipe would work every bit as well with smoked trout, if that is an easily accessible ingredient for you. Where I am, smoked salmon is readily available almost everywhere.
This creamy dip starts with a simple creamy smooth base of blended cream cheese and sour cream. And then you’ll add bright tangy lemon juice, briny capers, fresh dill, even a little horseradish for some subtle heat, before mixing in the salmon for rich, smoky flavor.
If you’re looking for a snack or appetizer that feels kind of fancy (with the bare minimum of effort) next time you have friends over, this is it. And while my kids have never been super fussy eaters, I was shocked how much they liked this. My oldest even asked it I could make it again a few days later because he enjoyed it so much.


Smoked Salmon Dip
We serve salmon dip with crackers, crostini, tortilla chips, pretzels, even potato chips. (And yes, my boys will eat this with absolutely everything – no judgement here.)
I love it with fresh vegetables, the crisp cold vegetables pair perfectly. And believe it or not, while celery may not be my favorite vegetable pretty much ever, I LOVE it with this dip. I will happily eat an entire plate of celery alongside some salmon dip.
My favorite way to make this is with visible chunks of salmon scattered throughout the creamy dip. However, you can also blend everything together until it’s a smooth and creamy spread, perfect for spreading on sandwiches or bagels. The dip is terrific made both ways.


Snack foods hearty enough to be a meal should be there own category of food in my world. Chunks of tender chicken, crunchy dill pickles, fresh green onions, and parsley are tossed with a creamy, tangy, dill pickle dressing to make this loaded pickle chicken salad. Served with crackers and chips, layered in a sandwich or a lettuce wrap, or eaten with a fork, it’s a big win for pickle lovers.
Queso fundido is a true cheese-lover’s dream. Can you imagine anything more tempting than a skillet filled with bubbling hot cheese and spicy chorizo topped with fresh cilantro and green onions served with tortilla chips?
Corned Beef Dip is a creamy, cheesy, slightly tangy dip generously filled with chunks of corned beef along with a bit of sauerkraut and caraway to give it that unmistakable Reuben flavor. Served with toasted rye bread, rye chips, crackers, or bagel chips this is a dream-come-true snack for everyone who loves a great Reuben sandwich.
Creamy, buttery, cheesy potatoes and bacon are combined in this Loaded Baked Potato Dip. It’s a hearty snack that is a guaranteed win for your next party.
