Avocado salad





Salads are the best accompaniments for barbecues because of their freshness, crispiness and lightness. Some of the most delicious salads of  just a  few  ingredients are sometimes the best.

Dressing:

1/4 cup of olive oil
2 cloves of garlic finely smashed
juice of one lime or lemon or
2 tabs of vinegar
1 tsp of salt
1/4 tsp of black pepper
3 drops of Tabasco sauce

In a small bowl mix all the ingredients and put aside

Salad
3 ripe  avocados peeled and cut into  1 inch cubes
4 cups of cleaned watercress
1 medium red onion finely sliced
2 tabs of  chopped parsley

In a large plate place watercress , onion and lay avocado on top. Pour dressing  over salad, sprinkle with chopped parsley and serve.




Enjoy
