Smoked Salmon Deviled Eggs for #FishFridayFoodies

Would you like to join Fish Friday Foodies?  We post and share new seafood/fish recipes on the third Friday of the month.  To join our group please email Wendy at wendyklik1517@gmail.com. Visit our Facebook page and Pinterest page for more wonderful fish and seafood recipe ideas.

For our final Fish Friday 2020 event, Cam of Culinary Adventures with Camilla invited us to make seafood centric amuse-bouche! "Let's make some diminutive seafood bites. Amuse-bouche are single, bite-sized hors d'oeuvre. Get creative with a seafood-based amuse-bouche and we can all have a virtual #FishFridayFoodies holiday party."

We all need a little bit more celebration and festivity in our life right now - so this virtual party featuring delicious seafood treats sounded pretty fantastic to me.

I had some smoked salmon leftover from another recipe, and the idea of deviled eggs just sounded delicious. And what a fabulous, rich, and creamy bite these were (or 2-bite...)! The capers add that touch of salty and briny, and the salmon adds a wonderful complement to the creaminess of the deviled egg filling. These are beautiful to share and delicious to eat!
