Mix dairy-free yogurt, mustard, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Spread a small amount over each bread square.

Add a small layer of shredded lettuce to each square. Top half of the squares with smoked salmon and a sprinkle of grated egg. Top the other half with one shrimp each, a bit more lettuce, and a small garnish of grated egg.
