SMOKED SALMON AND AVOCADO TIER
Steps:
- Place a 3-inch ring mold on a plate. Layer 2 to 3 pieces of salmon in the mold. Sprinkle salt and pepper over salmon. Sprinkle a little Champagne vinaigrette over the salmon and top with croutons. Peel and slice the avocados into 1/4-inch cubes. Squeeze lemon juice over avocado to avoid discoloration; this will also compliment the flavors of the dish. Add a little wasabi to the avocados and gently toss. Place 3 to 4 slices of the avocado on top of the salmon. Repeat the layers 1 more time. Remove the ring mold and garnish the top with a small piece of chive. Repeat to make a total of 4 tiers.

SMOKED SALMON WITH AVOCADO AND WASABI CREAM CHEESE
Yet another one from Dave Liberman's Young and Hungry. I have not tried this. Dave says it is has the flavors of sushi but is easy to prepare at home. He suggests leaving the sandwiches open faced to show off the ingredients and not overwhelm things with the taste of bread. The photo in his cookbook is really pretty.

Tips:
- For the best results, use high-quality smoked salmon. Look for salmon that is firm and has a deep pink color.
- If you can't find wasabi cream cheese, you can make your own by mixing together cream cheese, wasabi paste, and a little bit of lemon juice.
- If you don't have a cucumber, you can use another type of vegetable, such as celery or carrot.
