Add lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to the mashed avocado and mix well to create a creamy avocado spread.
Thinly slice the red onion and cucumber. Set aside.
Spread the avocado mixture evenly over one side of each toasted bread slice.
Layer smoked salmon over one slice of bread atop the avocado spread.
Sprinkle fresh dill over the salmon for added flavor.
Add the sliced red onion and cucumber on top of the salmon.
Scatter capers over the vegetables for a tangy bite.
Place the second slice of bread on top, avocado spread side down, to form the sandwich.
Slice the sandwich in half and serve immediately.
