The egg and smoked salmon salad with olives and lamb’s lettuce is a fresh, quick, and delicious summer salad. I had some smoked salmon to use up and didn’t feel like turning on the oven or spending too much time at the stove, so I made some hard-boiled eggs and put together this delicious salad. The egg and salmon salad is ready in just a few minutes, and if you cook the eggs beforehand, it will be ready to enjoy in 5 minutes. It’s a perfect single dish (but also appetizer, side, or second course) for summer, nutritious, flavorful, and delicious, perfect to take to the beach, park, office, or wherever you prefer!

Steps
The egg and salmon salad is very simple and quick to prepare. First, place the eggs in a saucepan with cold water, bring to a boil, and let them cook for 9 minutes until they are hard-boiled. Let the eggs cool, peel them, and cut them into large pieces.
In a bowl, combine the lamb’s lettuce, eggs, smoked salmon pieces, pitted olives, the juice of one lemon, extra virgin olive oil, salt, and black pepper, and mix all the ingredients well.
Notes:
The egg and salmon salad should be made and enjoyed in a short time. I do not recommend storing it for more than half a day.
