Notes

This dish is versatile; feel free to add leftover vegetables or switch up the greens based on what you have on hand. Fresh herbs like dill or chives enhance the flavor of the salmon. If you have additional cooking time, consider adding roasted potatoes or grains for a heartier dish. Store any leftovers separately in airtight containers; smoked salmon is best enjoyed fresh, while eggs can be less palatable when reheated.
