Step 2
Spread a generous layer of cream cheese evenly on the bottom halves of the baguette slices.

Place an equal portion of smoked salmon on top of the cream cheese layer.

Finely slice the half red onion and distribute the slices evenly over the salmon and dill.
Step 7
Squeeze the juice from half a lemon over the prepared toppings, ensuring an even distribution of acidity.

Drizzle a thin stream of olive oil over everything to enhance the flavor and texture.
Step 9
Season each baguette half with salt and black pepper to taste.
Step 10
Top with a handful of mixed salad greens for a fresh, crunchy texture.
