Ingredients
  

  • 8 ounces Cold-Smoked Salmon (sliced or flaked)
  • 5 cups Baby Arugula or Mixed Spring Greens
  • 1 medium English Cucumber (thinly sliced)

  3. Place the greens in a large bowl, drizzle half of the dressing over them, and toss gently.
  4. Transfer the dressed greens to a serving platter or individual bowls.
  5. Layer the sliced cucumbers and red onions over the greens, then sprinkle with capers and dill.
  6. Flake the smoked salmon into bite-sized pieces and distribute over the salad.
  7. Drizzle the remaining dressing on top, add fresh black pepper, and garnish with dill sprigs. Serve immediately.
