Meanwhile add beans to boiling water and cook until tender-crisp about 4-5 minutes; refresh under cold running water and drain well. Add tomatoes, onion and remaining dressing to mushrooms; toss to mix well; arrange lettuce on large platter or on individual plates. Spoon mushroom salad onto lettuce leaves; remove bones from salmon, breaking into chunks and place on top of salad.

Garnish with lemon wedges) to squeeze over salmon) and dill sprigs. * Kalamata or Nicoise olives cured in oil or brine are more flavourful than canned.
