1 cup (250 mL) goat cheese, softened
2 tsp (10 mL) lemon juice
Pinch each salt and pepper
1/4 cup (50 mL) minced green onion
8 large (10 inch/25 cm) spinach or plain tortillas
6 oz (175 g) smoked salmon, cut into strips
Preparation:
Peel and pit avocado; place in bowl. Add cheese, lemon juice, salt and pepper; mash until smooth. Stir in green onion.
Using 2-1/2-inch (6 cm) round cutter, cut out rounds from tortillas. Thinly spread with cheese mixture. Top half of the rounds with salmon; sandwich with remaining rounds, cheese side down and pressing lightly. Arrange on prepared pans. (Make-ahead: Wrap in plastic wrap; refrigerate for up to 2 hours.)
Bake in 425°F (220°C) oven, turning once, until crisp and golden, 8 to 10 minutes.
