Smoked Salmon Sandwich

By lynnieb93

If tuna is the chicken of the sea, then smoked salmon is the ham. It makes a perfect sandwich. It’s a little bit fancy so it’s great for company or a special treat any day of the week.

Ingredients

• 6 slices of toasted rye bread
• A few heaping spoonfuls of cream cheese
• A spoonful of mustard
• A handful of fresh dill
• A squeeze or two of lemon juice
• A handful of capers
• A thinly sliced red onion

Preparation

Step 1

1. Toss the cream cheese, mustard, dill, lemon and capers into a food processor and process them for a few seconds until they’re smooth. If you don’t have a food processor soften the cream cheese for a few seconds in the microwave then mix it with everything in a small bowl.
2. Spread the cream cheese mixture on two pieces of toasted rye. Top each with a thick layer of smoked salmon, lettuce and red onions. Place one pile on top of the other then top the works with yet another slice of rye. Repeat with the remaining ingredients for the second sandwich. Cut in half — corner-to-corner — and pass around. Enjoy!
