Fresh Salad with Avocado Cream Dressing (Quick & Easy)
Perfectly Ripe Avocado: Use an avocado that gives slightly when you gently squeeze it. Too hard is not creamy, too soft can have brown spots.” Dressing Ahead: You can easily make the avocado cream a few hours in advance. Keep covered in the fridge (the lime juice helps prevent discoloration).” Variation: Add other vegetables like cucumber, radishes or cherry tomatoes. Or make it non-vegetarian with some smoked chicken or shrimp.
