Mini Pickle Salami Tacos
These Mini Pickle Salami Tacos are a quick, no-cook appetizer or snack with cream cheese, sweet gherkins, Everything Bagel seasoning, and hot honey!
Servings: 12
Ingredients
- 12 mini sweet Gherkin pickles (see notes)
- 8 oz. whipped cream cheese (see notes)
- 12 slices Genoa salami
- 1½ tsp Everything Bagel seasoning
- ¼ cup hot honey
Instructions
- Pat the mini pickles completely dry.
- Spread about 1 tablespoon of whipped cream cheese onto each slice of salami. Top with a mini pickle in the center.
- Sprinkle with Everything Bagel seasoning.
- Drizzle with a little hot honey.
- Bring the sides of the salami up over the cream cheese so it looks like a taco.
- Serve immediately while the pickles are cold and crisp.
Notes
I use mini sweet gherkins because their mellow sweetness balances the salty salami and spicy honey. Mini dill pickles or cornichons also work. If you only have larger gherkins, quarter them lengthwise and trim them as needed to fit the salami.
Whipped cream cheese is easiest to spread straight from the fridge. Block cream cheese also works, but let it soften first so it doesn’t tear the salami.
Make them keto-friendly: Use mini dill pickles instead of sweet gherkins, then omit the hot honey or choose a sugar-free alternative. Check the product labels, as sugar content varies between brands.
Assemble close to serving: These are best cold and freshly made, when the pickles still have a crisp snap. As they sit, the pickles release moisture, and the filling can become messy.
