Zucchini rolls with smoked salmon

Zucchini rolls with smoked salmon and cream cheese is a cold appetizer that is not only super easy but also quick to prepare, fresh and light. You can make them in no time and serve together with a cheese platter, bread sticks and other tasty finger food. The combination of spreadable cheese together with smoked salmon is a real classic while the thinly sliced zucchini and the green part of spring onion add freshness and crunchiness. The addition of pink peppercorns adds a fragrant and spicy note but if you don’t like this type of flavor you can add chili flakes or simply some freshly ground pepper.
