Stacia Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 (edited) Ok, I think my ds & I are seriously hooked on this salad. Easy & delicious. We will be making this one often (but quadrupling – or more – the recipe, lol). (I did not put the garlic in ours.) FYI, got the recipe from the Whole Living magazine: http://www.wholeliving.com/152870/2012-whole-living-action-plan. It’s in the week 1 lunch recipes. Avocado w/ Bell Pepper & Tomatoes Serves 1 1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil Juice of 1/2 lime 1 small clove garlic, minced Pinch cayenne Coarse salt 1 ripe avocado, halved and seeded 1/2 yellow bell pepper, stem and seeds removed, diced 6 cherry tomatoes, halved 1 scallion, thinly sliced 1 tablespoon freshly chopped cilantro, plus leaves for garnish In a small bowl, whisk together oil, lime juice, garlic, and cayenne. Season with salt. Scoop out meat from avocado halves and chop. Transfer to a bowl and add bell pepper, tomatoes, scallion, and cilantro. Drizzle with dressing and season with salt. Gently stir to combine. Spoon mixture into avocado shells. Garnish with cilantro leaves. :drool5: Edited January 11, 2012 by Stacia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Mungo Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 I make a salad similar to this in the summertime, but add fresh corn stripped from the cob. So yummy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mom31257 Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 Here is my new favorite: Romaine chicken blue cheese crumbles apples grapes cranberrys doesn't need dressing This is almost identical to a salad at Wendy's. It doesn't include grapes, but has roasted, sweet pecans and a pomegranate vinegrette dressing. I leave off the blue cheese because of a dairy issue, but I love this salad so much.
