Later, I'll do the dishes and make lunches for tomorrow. Spring is here and the weather is getting nicer this week. That always "wakes me up" a little and gives me more energy to put the effort into making better lunches. Salads are great for lunch, but they can get boring fast. Here's a fun and flavorful salad to add to your mix:
Guacamole Salad
1-2 avocados, diced in large chunks
1 pint grape tomatoes, halved
1 yellow pepper, diced in large chunks
1/4 of a red onion, chopped
salt, pepper
1/2 tsp grated lime zest
juice of 1-2 limes
1/2 tsp minced garlic
olive oil
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
optional: 1-2 TB minced jalapeno pepper
Mix the vegetables: tomatoes, pepper, onion, jalapeno. Add the oil, lime zest, lime juice, salt, pepper, and cayenne. Gently fold in the avocado.
I prefer the salad served cold, but it can also be served at room temperature!
