Belgian Endive Bites with Salmon and Tuna Salad

I know what I’m serving at parties from now on!  These delicious Belgian Endive Bites with Salmon and Tuna Salad!  AMAZING!  

Light . . . healthy . . . easy finger food . . . elegant too!

The idea for this appetizer came from Angie from Angie’s Recipes.   She never fails to share some really healthy and delicious recipes!  Thanks Angie, from your kitchen to mine.

I grew up enjoying my mother’s humble tuna and salmon salads.  All she did was take a can of good quality salmon or tuna, chop up some green onions, toss in a balsamic or simple Italian vinaigrette dressing, shake a little salt and pepper on top and that was it!  An easy, humble, yet delicious salad was ready in minutes.   And devoured even faster!

With the presentation of these salads on individual Belgian Endive leaves, sprinkled with some slivered almonds and pomegranate arils, it gets even better . . . prettier and healthier!

And that will make your guests and you smile!

Lay the Belgian Endive bites with salmon and tuna salad on a nice green bed of baby greens; here I used baby kale, but it’s entirely up to you what to use as a foundation for your presentation.

The pomegranate arils add a nice touch of color and a little tiny tang of flavor amidst the fish and savory vinaigrette!
