APPLE, AVOCADO, AND HEARTS OF PALM SALAD
I adore this salad! For a dinner party, this could be assembled early in the day and drizzle the dressing on just before serving. Toss the avocado and apples in a little lemon juice to prevent oxidation.

Steps:
- 1. Prepare a large bowl of ice water.
- 2. Fill the pasta pot with 3 quarts of water and bring it to a rolling boil over high heat. Add the coarse salt and the beans, and blanch until crisp-tender, 3 to 4 minutes. (Cooking time will vary according to the size and tenderness of the beans.) Immediately remove the colander from the water, letting the water drain from the beans. Plunge the beans into the ice water so they cool down as quickly as possible. (The beans will cool in 1 to 2 minutes. If you leave them longer, they will become soggy and begin to lose flavor.) Drain the beans and wrap them in a thick kitchen towel to dry. (Store the cooked beans in the refrigerator for up to 4 hours.)
- 3. In a large, shallow bowl, combine the yogurt, mustard, and fine salt and whisk to blend. Taste for seasoning. Add the green beans, chives, apple, avocado, and lobster. Toss to coat. Arrange on the plates and serve.
Tips:
- Choose ripe avocados: Look for avocados that are dark green or black and slightly soft to the touch. Avoid avocados that are too hard or have brown spots.
- Use a sharp knife: A sharp knife will help you easily cut the avocados and apples without bruising them.
- Cut the avocados and apples into uniform pieces: This will ensure that they cook evenly.
- Add lemon juice or vinegar: This will help to prevent the avocados from browning.
- Season the salad to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings as desired.
- Serve the salad immediately: Avocado salad is best served fresh. If you need to make it ahead of time, store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 hours.
Conclusion:
Avocado and apple salad is a refreshing and healthy salad that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking.
