Notes
- Use good smoked salmon: Since this is a no-cook salad, the flavor depends on the salmon. Choose one you love and slice it into bite-sized pieces for easier eating.
- Add dressing right before serving: Greens can wilt quickly once dressed, so drizzle the citrus vinaigrette just before serving.
- Slice the onion thin: Thin slices keep the onion flavor balanced and prevent it from overpowering the salad.
- Adjust the salt last: Smoked salmon and capers are naturally salty, so taste before adding any extra salt.
- Make it meal prep friendly: Prep the veggies and herbs ahead, then add salmon, avocado, and dressing right before eating.
