Strawberry Avocado Salad Recipe
By: Gigi Howe
With the good prices on strawberries this time of year, I thought to share this recipe today. It’s simple to make. Even simpler if you decide not to make your own dressing. You can use a store bought poppy seed dressing or a raspberry vinaigrette, both would be tasty with this easy salad. It’s a nice change from the traditional tossed salad. I like to change things up once in a while! 😉
You can also add whatever other toppings to this salad, you have a lot of freedom to make this your own creation. Try adding cheese, nuts, sunflower seeds, bacon, etc. I’m giving you the nuts and bolts recipe, you can expand it in any way that you think you would like to try or you can keep it simple and just use the ingredients listed. Let me know what you experiment with and add to the recipe!

Honey Lime Dressing:

Combine all the ingredients for the Honey Lime dressing and mix well with a whisk or put them all in a jar, seal the lid tightly and shake well! Pour dressing over greens, avocado and strawberries. Toss and serve. (You will most likely have dressing leftover.)
