Children's Party Food: Smoked Salmon and Cream Cheese Blinis

Catering for children's parties often means the parents too, and this always begs the question of whether to just cater for the children, or to throw a few other bites onto the buffet table that might satisfy a more sophisticated, older palate. 

These smoked salmon blinis always go down well and are so quick and simple to do they're an absolute no-brainer. You can of course garnish with a little dill too, but I struggled to get hold of any for Bridget's second birthday party recently. Bridget loves them too - so they're a good all-rounder for both young and old party guests.

Smoked Salmon & Cream Cheese Blinis

Here's how:

• Pack of blinis
• 1 tub cream cheese
• 300g smoked salmon
• 1 lemon
• Black pepper to season

Firstly place the blinis onto a the grill rack and allow to cook for 2-3 minutes on either side, remove and leave somewhere to fully cool.

Spread each blini with a teaspoon full of cream cheese.

Put on top of each blini a generous amount of smoked salmon in a pretty looking mound.

Squeeze over the fresh lemon and add a pinch of black pepper to each. Enjoy!
