Ingredients

Tortillas

  • 8 small tortillas

Smoked Salmon

  • 6-8 ounce package of smoked salmon (hot or cold)

Cabbage Slaw

  • 2-3 cups shredded cabbage
  • 1 lemon (for juice)
  • Pinch of sea salt

Spreads and Seasonings

  • 1/2 cup herb cream cheese spread (such as Boursin)
  • Everything Bagel Seasoning (to taste)

Instructions

  1. Warm the tortillas: Heat the tortillas gently in the microwave for about 20-30 seconds or warm them individually on a skillet over medium heat until pliable and lightly toasted.
  2. Prepare the salmon: Using a fork, break up the smoked salmon into smaller, bite-sized pieces ideal for taco assembly.
  3. Make the cabbage slaw: Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the shredded cabbage, sprinkle a pinch of sea salt, and toss with your hands until well combined and lightly seasoned.
  4. Assemble the tacos: Spread approximately 1 tablespoon of herb cream cheese evenly on each warm tortilla. Then add a couple of forkfuls of the flaked smoked salmon followed by a generous portion of the lemony cabbage slaw.
  5. Add the final touch: Sprinkle everything bagel seasoning over the assembled tacos to add a burst of flavor and serve immediately.
