GETTING TO THE PARTY

Prepare the dressing up to four hours ahead, but don't add the avocado or leaves until you're ready to eat. Transport the dressing in the jam jar, and keep the avocados whole, and leaves in the bag. When ready to eat, finish the salad.

    Love this salad. It's light & tangy and goes with almost anything. Also: avocados.
