Strawberry Avocado Salad
3 T plus 1 t honey
2 T olive oil
1 T cider vinegar (I use white wine vinegar instead)
1 t lemon juice
2 cups organic salad greens ( I use the spring mix)
1 avocado – peeled, pitted, sliced into bit size pieces
(I use 1/2 of a Fl avocado or whole Calif. avocado)
10 organic strawberries, sliced
1/2 c raw pecans (see directions for presoaking below)
In a small bowl, whisk the honey, oil, vinegar, and lemon juice. Place greens in 1 larger salad bowl or individual bowls. Top with avocado and strawberries. Sprinkle pecans on top. Drizzle dressing over salad. Serve immediately or refrigerate up to 2 hrs.
Makes 4 side dishes or 2 main meals.
Presoaking Pecans or Walnuts
4 cups of nuts
2 teaspoons sea salt
filtered water
Soaking time: 7 or more hours (can do overnight)
Dehydrating time: 12-24 hours, until completely dry and crisp.
Pecans can be stored in an airtight container, but walnuts are more susceptible to become rancid so should always be stores in the refrigerator.
