1 avocado/s (large) halved, peeled and cubed
200 g hot smoked salmon fillet/s
8 cherry tomatoes -halved
60 g walnuts (½ cup) lightly toasted
1 red onion/s -halved and sliced thinly
4 tbsp capers -drained

Dressing

1 lemon/s -zest and juice
60 ml extra virgin olive oil (¼ cup) extra virgin
1 tsp horseradish cream
Pinch sea salt
ground black pepper -to taste

Place the leaves into a bowl or onto a platter. Arrange all of the other ingredients on top.
For the dressing place, all of the ingredients into a jar and shake until combined or mix together well in a small bowl.
Drizzle over the salad, just before serving.

Notes

Dairy-free

Replace the horseradish cream with fresh horseradish or dijon mustard.

Nut-free

Replace the walnuts with toasted pumpkin or sunflower seeds.

Replace the salmon with diced and grilled tempeh or grilled mushrooms.

Add boiled and diced potato or roasted sweet potato. A slice of rye or sprouted sourdough is also delicious.
