Smoked Salmon and Avocado Sandwich

Smoked Salmon Sandwich with Avocado and Lime Mayonnaise

I discovered this delicious Smoked Salmon sandwich with avocado and lime mayonnaise at the Toussaint Cafe in Amsterdam a few summers ago. The sandwich came with a choice of bread, and I chose what they call brown bread in Amsterdam.  I believe the bread to be a heavily grained wheat bread and very delicious. I make this sandwich often and love it with either a whole grain bread or fresh sourdough bread. I make a sourdough loaf that is 50% bread flour and 50% whole wheat. My Costco store and Trader Joe’s store has great deals on Smoked Salmon. Make a batch of these sandwiches for your next luncheon gathering.
