Ingredients: 4 slices of sourdough bread (1/2 inch thick); 2 ripe avocados; 8 oz smoked salmon, thinly sliced; 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice; 1/4 red onion, thinly sliced; 2 tablespoons capers, drained; 2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped; 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional); 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil; Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste; 1 tablespoon butter for toasting bread (optional); 1 tablespoon cream cheese (optional)

Instructions

Toast the bread

Toast the sourdough bread slices until golden brown. For extra flavor, spread a thin layer of butter on each slice before toasting. Let cool slightly.
Prepare the avocado spread

In a medium bowl, mash the avocados with a fork. Add 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, 1 tablespoon of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Mix until smooth but still slightly chunky for texture.
Assemble the base

Spread the avocado mixture evenly over each slice of toast. If using cream cheese, spread a thin layer on the toast before adding the avocado.
Add smoked salmon

Arrange the smoked salmon slices on top of the avocado spread, folding them slightly for height and visual appeal.
Add toppings

Scatter the thinly sliced red onion, capers, and chopped dill over the salmon. Drizzle with the remaining olive oil and lemon juice.
Final seasoning

Season with freshly ground black pepper and sprinkle with red pepper flakes if desired. Add a final small pinch of sea salt if needed.
