Notes
The buttery fat from the avocados balance the high acidity of this salad, so if you don’t have avocados, try adding some form of dairy like plain full fat yogurt or goat cheese (depending on recipe style you choose).
I choose peanut oil in most of my recipes where I don’t want a strong flavor. If you or someone you feed is allergic to peanuts, simply swap it for avocado oil.
Sometimes I add mangoes to the Mexican style or pomegranate arils to the Persian style, tomatoes to the Italian style, or slivered almonds to the American Style. Just mix it up so you don’t get bored of your daily salad Try something tonight and tell me about it in the comments section.
