Comeau’s Smoked Salmon Salad with Lemon Dill Vinaigrette

This salad is a go-to for summer, featuring locally smoked salmon from Willy Krauch on a crisp bed of arugula and mixed greens. Accompanied by fresh radishes, cucumber, and a creamy lemon dill vinaigrette, it’s a refreshing choice, especially for the warmer months.
