Number Of Ingredients 6

4 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill
Zest and juice of 1 lemon
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
6 slices good-quality white bread*
1/3 large English seedless cucumber (about 4 inches), thinly sliced

In a small bowl, combine the cream cheese, fresh dill, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Season the mixture with salt and pepper.
Lay the slices of bread on your work service and distribute the cream cheese evenly among each slice, spreading into a thin layer. Arrange the cucumber slices in rows over 3 slices of the bread.

Time 10m

Yield 1 1/2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, at room temperature
3 scallions, trimmed and coarsely chopped
4 -5 slices lox or 4 -5 slices smoked salmon
salt and pepper, to taste

Steps:

In a food processor, work the cream cheese until it is smooth, turning off the motor and scraping down the sides of the work bowl several times.
Add the scallions, lox, salt and pepper. Continue working the cream cheese mixture until it is blended (by the way, it is okay if there are some chunks of salmon in the mixture).
Remove cream cheese mixture to a pretty container or small bowl and refrigerate until ready to serve. Schmear on bagels, matzoh, or toasted pumpernickel or rye bread, or whatever you like.
