Drizzle this Herbed Crème Fraîche Dressing over my Smoked Salmon Benedict with Avocado

Lately I’ve  been trying to eat more salads for dinner but am SO bored of the same old recipes. I had some hot house smoked salmon in the fridge and wanted to build a dressing around it. It didn’t take me long to reach for the crème fraîche. Indulgent I know, but a couple of tablespoons really make this dressing something to talk about.

The crème fraîche lends the perfect amount of creaminess to the salmon without being overpowering. The chives & dill add so much flavor and the apple cider vinegar brings a subtle zing!

I’m really happy with how this turned out! This salad dressing just seems fancy and decadent to me. Try this drizzled over my Smoked Salmon Benedict with Avocado for brunch or over your favorite salad for lunch.

This Herbed Crème Fraîche Dressing will keep in the fridge for 2 days so you can try it would a couple of dishes.

Enjoy! xx
