    The combination of smoked salmon and Wasabi has always been a favorite around our house, but the addition of avocado adds a delightful creaminess and balances out those two strong flavors. Instead of our usual cocktail pumpernickel bread base, which is what we had on hand, next time we will try home made bagel chips.
