I scaled this back for 2 for lunch and the DM and I thoroughly enjoyed. The really good thing is that it allowed me to use up the last of some smoked salmon and that last little bit of extra light cream cheese and some red onion I already had diced up, though no capers and had to use try dill but quick and delicious.
