Steps:
- Fill a saucepan wide enough to hold salmon with 2 1/2 inches cold water. Stir in 1/4 cup lemon juice, the celery, parsley, and 2 teaspoons salt. Bring to a boil; reduce heat. Add salmon, skin side down. Cover, and simmer until salmon is just cooked through, 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer salmon to a plate, and let cool 20 minutes. Discard poaching liquid. Flake salmon into large pieces.
- Put avocado, wasabi paste, and remaining 3/4 teaspoon lemon juice into a food processor, and season with salt; puree. Transfer to a small bowl, and cover tightly with plastic wrap, pressing wrap directly onto the surface. Refrigerate until ready to use (up to 30 minutes).
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Cut baguette in half crosswise, and trim crust from sides; cut each half lengthwise into three 1/2-inch-thick slices. Arrange, flat side down, in a single layer on a baking sheet. Toast in oven until lightly golden, about 7 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes. Spread each bread slice with about 2 tablespoons avocado-wasabi mixture, and top with salmon and sprouts.

AVOCADO SALMON SPREAD
This is a tasty and healthy alternative to typical seafood dips and spreads. The avocado is so rich and creamy, you'll never miss the mayonnaise and shredded cheeses that most recipes contain. Also, you can substitute light cream cheese for regular without compromising texture or flavor.

Steps:
- Season the salmon filet with the black pepper. Set a small skillet over low/medium heat, add the olive oil, salmon filet, shallot and garlic and cook, turning the salmon once for about 10 minutes. The salmon should be just cooked through.
- Transfer the salmon, including the shallot and garlic, to a small mixing bowl and allow to cool for 10 minutes, then cover loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate until chilled.
- When the salmon is fully chilled, use a fork to flake the fish apart. Remove the pit and scoop the avocado flesh right into the bowl, add the lemon juice and mash all together well. Stir in the cream cheese, chives, dill, salt and cayenne and mix well.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. Serve with crackers, bagel chips or toast points.
