This 5-minute recipe is a ringer when time is super tight. Serve each sandwich with some cherry tomatoes. Cool cucumber, briny capers and savory dill add a ton of flavor to salmon for a protein-packed sandwich filler. A great portable lunch, this speedy dish is great for picnics or the first warm summer evenings where cooking falls second to enjoying the evening. This recipe easily scales up for a crowd. Canned salmon makes it quick but leftover salmon can easily be flaked into the salad mixture. Add a few romaine leaves to each sandwich for some crunch. Deep in the summer, ripe heirloom tomatoes further the layers of flavor and texture.
