I really liked this. . .that being said, I switched it up a bit. First, I didn't use the bread. I used the cucumber on the bottom, mixed up the cream cheese with the spices (and added some garlic powder), then put the trout on top and sprinkled seasoning salt, pepper and dill over the top. Great low carb finger foods! I used trout that I smoked with my new smoker (an electric one and it is awesome) this weekend. We had these as a main dish for dinner, but they would be perfect as appetizers. I have to think that thinly sliced red bell pepper would be pretty and yummy on top too. Thanks!

July 2008 update: VERY happy to be back on Zaar after about a two year absence due to having had no internet connection at home, and having been too unwell for a time so that getting re-connected wasn't even a priority!

<br>And really looking forward to getting back into the Zaar world and connecting again with the many wonderful people I knew before, and new people, of course!
