Quick Summer Salads: Avocado Salad (Tylor's favorite!)

Fresh and spicy! No carbs and totally addicting! The salt, lime, chili and avocado actually make the dressing for this salad.

***As always with my recipes, ORDER of ingredients MATTERS!!

  1. Juice of 1 Medium Lime (have an extra on hand in case the first one is "dry"
  2. 1/2 tsp Kosher Salt
  3. 3/4th to1 Serranno chili pepper minced-depending on your bravery (do NOT touch with hands, if you do immediately coat hands in butter or milk then wash well with soap and water)
  4. 1 Avocado, skinned and chopped 
  5. 1 head romaine, washed and salad chopped (Holding head flat, make 2 lengthwise slices through head, then cut from tip to base in 1 inch increments for perfect bite size pieces.
  6. Pomegranet seeds or 1/2 chopped pear, and or grilled chicken.(Optional)
Put lemon juice and salt in a bowl, add chopped chili pepper and stir. Let sit while you chop the avocado, then add to bowl and stir. Let sit while you chop the romaine, add and toss. add any optional items and toss and serve....Enjoy!
