AVOCADO VINAIGRETTE SALAD DRESSING

Steps:

• Place all ingredients except the olive oil in a blender (I personally use a stand up stick model in a bowl). As you begin to blend, slowly pour in olive oil to desired consistency. If you like it tangy, you may wish to add more vinegar if you like it thinner you may want to use more olive oil. Add salt to taste.
• If you want it spicy, add a serrano or jalapeno pepper(s). Anyone that knows me or my recipes knows that I adore garlic, spice and vinegar so my taste may be stronger than yours for these items, adjust accordingly.
• This is an excellent dressing for any salad but is exceptionally good on a grilled chicken southwestern salad. Also good in place of cocktail sauce for a change to shrimp cocktails.

QUICK AVOCADO-SPROUT-VINAIGRETTE SALAD

Steps:

• Cover a platter with watercress and arugula. Place the avocado face down on the greens. Slice the avocado crosswise and fan it out across the greens. Thoroughly mix the remaining ingredients and pour over the avocado and greens. Add sprouts before serving.

AVOCADO VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• The Vinaigrette: To make the vinaigrette, combine the olive oil, white wine vinegar, Dijon mustard and salt and pepper to taste in a screw top jar, and shake well to combine. Taste and adjust the seasoning, to taste.
• The Avocado: Cut the avocados in half lengthways and gently twist the halves to separate. To remove the seed, insert a sharp knife into it, then twist and lift out.
• Brush the surfaces with lemon juice and place the avocado halves on 4 serving plates, shake the dressing again and drizzle it evenly over the avocado halves.
• Serve with buttered toast triangles (more traditional) or warm crusty rolls.
• Notes: An avocado is ripe if it feels a little soft when held in your hand. To help ripen an avocado, put it in a paper bag with a ripe banana or apple and store in an airy spot. You can now buy avocados that don't discolour when cut, but are they, I wonder, genetically modified?

AVOCADO OIL VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the mustard and vinegar. Pouring slowly, add a thin stream of avocado oil to the bowl, whisking with the other hand. Continue to whisk until all of the oil has been poured into the bowl and the ingredients have come together homogeneously. Season with salt and pepper.
• Serve over your favorite green salad.
