Not a Nicoise Salad (by G)

I watched an interview with Hugh Fearnley-Wittingstall and he somehow guilted me about the amount of meat we eat so I resolved to be a bit more vego-centric and less carnivorous today.  I had meant to make a Nicoise Salad but forgot the beans... not a Nicoise Salad.  That said, there was a lot of things in this salad:

A packet mescalin salad mix, quail eggs, cucumber (in place of beans), boiled potato, capers, olives, mixed tiny tomatoes, smoked salmon and tinned mackrel. Over the top was a dressing of cornichon  liquor (sadly the cornichons themselves were eaten yesterday - cornichons don't last more than a couple of hours in our house), vinegar, Dijon mustard, olive oil and shallot.

It was a pretty good salad and seemed quite healthful - the mackrel was a bit of overkill though.
