Avocado and Feta Salad with Basil Balsamic Vinaigrette
Avocado and Feta Salad with Basil Balsamic Vinaigrette
Recipe By: Alice Morrow
Ingredients
2-4 ripened avocados
1(4-6 oz.) container of crumbled feta cheese
Olive oil
Juice of 2-3 limes
Sea salt
Fresh ground black pepper
DRESSING:
¼ c. white balsamic vinegar
2 T. chopped fresh basil
2 T. fresh lemon juice
1 T. Dijon mustard
1 t. sugar
1 t. minced garlic
1 t. salt
1 t. black pepper
⅓ c. extra virgin olive oil
Instructions
Cut avocado in half and remove seed. With a spoon scoop out the meat of the avocado shell. Take each half and cut into thin slices.
In a shallow serving bowl, lay out the slices of avocado.
Squeeze fresh lime juice all over avocados. This helps them to keep from turning brown.
Drizzle with olive oil, salt and pepper.
In a bowl, whisk together all the ingredients except oil.
When blended, keep whisking but add the olive oil in a steady stream. Whisk until blended.
Refrigerate until ready to use. This makes about ¾ c. dressing.
When ready to serve, sprinkle the avocados with the crumbled feta cheese, drizzle dressing or place the dressing on the side and let guests serve themselves.
