Method
 

Preparation
  1. Gather Ingredients: Begin by collecting all your fresh ingredients—crisp greens, ripe avocados, and, of course, luscious smoked salmon.
  2. Prepare the Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper until well blended.
  3. Mix Greens: In a large bowl, combine mixed greens and baby spinach. Toss them gently until they’re well mixed.
  4. Add Toppings: Layer in thinly sliced cucumbers, cherry tomatoes halved, and creamy avocado slices.
  5. Arrange Salmon: Gently fold in the smoked salmon pieces or lay them artfully atop the salad.
  6. Drizzle Dressing: Pour the dressing over the salad just before serving to keep everything fresh and crisp.
  7. Serve & Enjoy: Transfer your salad onto plates or a serving platter. Garnish with fresh dill or capers.
