TOMATO AND AVOCADO SALAD



Tomato and Avocado Salad image

A simple palatable avocado salad blended with onion and tomato is one of the easiest and healthiest salads. It is normally used as an appetizer or as a side salad with the main course. Avocado belongs to the pear family and is also famously known as alligator or croc pear because of its shape and dark green roughly textured skin. Avocado is considered as a super healthy food and is a store house of nutrients like monounsaturated fats and omega-3. Avocado not only keeps your heart healthy but also protects your eyes and skin. Most importantly it provides protection against cancer in particular breast cancer.

ZUCCHINI AVOCADO SALAD



Zucchini Avocado Salad image

From "Sundays at Moosewood," their brunch cookbook. Light, refreshing, and vegan, it's a nice change of pace that quite nearly qualifies as 'raw' food. Cook time is minimum chill time. Add other spices as you wish (I like to combine the oil, lemon juice, and garlic with some rosemary about half an hour before tossing with the veggies).

Tips:

  • Choose ripe, flavorful tomatoes: Look for tomatoes that are deep red and slightly soft to the touch. Avoid tomatoes that are hard or have green spots.
  • Use a sharp knife: A sharp knife will help you cut the tomatoes and zucchini more easily and evenly.
  • Don't overcook the zucchini: Zucchini should be cooked just until it is tender-crisp. Overcooking will make it mushy.
  • Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as basil, oregano, and thyme, will add a lot of flavor to the salad. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but use half the amount.
  • Let the salad sit for a few minutes before serving: This will allow the flavors to meld together.

Conclusion:

This tomato, zucchini, and avocado salad is a delicious and healthy summer dish. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Serve it as a side dish or main course, or pack it for lunch.
