Fancy Salad on Rye Crisp Cracker

This is a fancy way to serve a salad, and it comes wow factor!
Most of all it is very tasty:)
Scandinavian countries eat a lot of smorgas (sorry I don't have the Swedish characters on
my computer) they are traditionally made on a rye crackers, served with any toppings you want, open faced.
They traditionally come in round shapes with a hole in the middle,
but they also make them like we think of a cracker but longer.
Mostly they are topped with smoked salmon with cheese, or thin meat and radishes, even different
pastes and spreads.
This is great for vegans, we have a plethora of ingredients to use.
This recipe has everything, creamy, crisp, savory, and a burst of sweetness from
the surprise ingredient:) I suggest eating it in a sunny location, and enjoying the warm sun
and yummy smorgas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Fancy Salad on Rye Crisp Cracker
make 3 cracker or a half of a round

3 rye crackers
3/4 cup lettuce (I used butter lettuce and shredded the lettuce by hand)
1/2 cup chopped cucumber (I seeded mine)
1/4 cup of shredded carrots
10 purple grapes
2 Tablespoons of Oatly creme fraiche ( any vegan sour cream)
2 Tablespoons of almond milk (any vegan milk)
1/2 teaspoon of sea salt
sea salt

Mix creme fraiche and milk with sea salt until combined.
On a plate place the crackers and top with the lettuce and cucumber.
Then sprinkle on carrots, add a pinch of sea salt over the whole salad, and place the grapes on the edges.
Then drizzle dressing over the top!
