Smoked Oyster Pâté

Since getting pregnant, I have found myself eating a tin of smoked oysters almost every morning, soon after waking up before making a more complete breakfast. It’s a fast, easy way to get a dose of quality protein, omega-3 fatty acid, iron, and more.

Even before the pregnancy, we kept smoked oysters on hand at all times. In fact, we have them on automatic delivery every other month via Amazon’s Subscribe & Save. It’s great because we don’t have to think about finding them at a store and we get a discount! We recommend you consider signing up for it (whether for the oysters or another one of your favorite go-to items).

Perhaps, though, eating smoked oysters out of the tin does not appeal to you. You might enjoy them in a salad, like this one, or you might like a savory but light appetizer to share with friends. This pâté recipe is quick and easy, and it looks super fancy. We hope you will enjoy it!

Ingredients
4 3-oz cans Smoked oysters in olive oil, drained
2 green onions, chopped
3 cloves garlic, chopped
1 tsp fresh lemon juice
2-3 large cucumbers, sliced
Parsley, chopped, for garnish
Lemon zest for garnish

Method

Place oysters, onion, garlic, and lemon juice in a Vitamix or blender. Blend on medium-high until smooth.

Scoop the pate into a small bowl and serve on slices of cucumber. Sprinkle parsley and lemon zest over the pate.
