These looked all right, but there could be improvements in the flavour.

I would pick the spinach or lettuce over the arugula, which makes it way too bitter.

I would not add any salt since it is not necessary-- smoked salmon is salty enough and the saltiness overwhelmed the cream cheese.

There is no need for lemon zest-- just lemon juice is enough

Dill is a good substitue for the green onion as the green onion enhances salty flavours.

Looks better and tastes better when you spread the cream cheese on the tortilla, then layer a bit of the fish on top, then the greens, then the fish.

This is a long time favorite. We make it as part of our Christmas tradition. An easy, pungent hors d'ouvre.
