It's time to stop the (carb) madness and eat something leafy, something juicy, something lemony, something, dare I say….HEALTHY? If you're feeling like me, try this tomato and avo salad. It's refreshing and really satisfying, not to mention is super easy to assemble. I call for cherry tomatoes here (which you shouldn’t keep in the fridge!) but if you can’t find those, vine-ripened work just fine. Same goes for the nuts: the pecans can be swapped for walnuts, pine nuts, really whatever you’ve got. Pro tip: if you can only find rock-hard avocados at the grocery store, pop them into a paper bag, fold it over, and within 24 hours they should be in edible territory. What really makes this salad, though, is the tart and sweet lemony dressing. I like the salad lightly coated, but by all means dress to your heart’s content!
¼ cup olive oil
3 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
¼ teaspoon kosher salt
Pinch of freshly ground black pepper
1 cup pecans
2 heads butter lettuce, leaves separated
1 head red endive, leaves separated
1½ pounds multicolored cherry tomatoes, halved
1 large ripe avocado, sliced
½ small red onion, thinly sliced
Because leftover shredded Parm is a terrible thing to waste.
A refreshing drink, just in time for summer.
This Indian takeout classic is so tender, it's like buttah.
A little sweet and very refreshing, this will be your drink of the summer.
