Instructions

Place the lettuce on a large wooden cutting board and finely chop it.
Add the smoked salmon, red onion, dill, green onions, capers, cucumber, and cherry tomatoes directly onto the board.
Using a large knife, chop everything together until finely chopped and evenly mixed.
Add the cream cheese, Greek yogurt, lemon juice, and black pepper directly onto the chopped mixture.
Continue chopping and folding everything together on the board until creamy and cohesive but still chunky.
Toast the bagels until golden.
Spoon the chopped salmon salad generously over each bagel half.
Finish with extra dill, black pepper, or everything bagel seasoning, if desired.

Notes

Romaine gives more crunch, iceberg keeps it classic and crisp.
The finer the chop, the better the texture.
The salad can be made up to 24 hours ahead and stored covered in the refrigerator.
