The bread was a bit too soft for my liking. I would have preferred a heartier bread.

This sandwich is a bit too rich for my taste. I would have preferred less cream cheese.

I'm not a big fan of fish, but I really enjoyed this sandwich. The red onion relish and avocado helped to balance out the flavor of the salmon.

This sandwich is best served immediately after it's made. The bread can get soggy if you let it sit for too long.

I'm not a fan of cucumbers, so I omitted them from the sandwich. It was still delicious.

I made a few substitutions to the recipe based on what I had on hand. I used Greek yogurt instead of sour cream in the red onion relish and it turned out great.

This smoked salmon sandwich was a delightful burst of flavors! The combination of the salty salmon, creamy avocado, tangy red onion relish, and crunchy cucumber was simply divine.
