Tomato Avocado And Red Onion Salad With Herb Vinaigrette Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat a grill over medium heat.
• Cover a large tray with tomato quarters, and set aside.
• Place avocado halves in a bowl and drizzle with olive oil. Place each half on a hot open grill for about 30 to 45 seconds. Remove and place on top of the tomatoes arranged on tray. Drizzle with olive oil again.
• In another bowl, cover the red onion slices with the juice from the lemon half and olive oil. Place onions in the empty avocado pit holes. Cover with the lemon/olive oil mix. Then, top with pesto, distributing generously on all sides. Sprinkle pine nuts and cheese on top, to taste.

Steps:

• Whisk the olive oil and lemon juice in a large bowl. Halve and pit the avocados, then cut into 1/2-inch pieces; add to the bowl and toss. Add the cherry tomatoes, cucumber, parsley, chives and 1/4 teaspoon each kosher salt and pepper. Gently toss until well combined.
• Place the lettuce in a large serving bowl. Drizzle lightly with olive oil and sprinkle with sea salt; toss to coat. Spoon the avocado salad over the lettuce, top with the goat cheese and season with more sea salt. Serve with lemon wedges.

Steps:

• Whisk together the lemon juice, herbs, honey and a generous pinch of salt in a small bowl. Gradually whisk in the oil, starting with a few drops and then adding the rest in a steady stream to make a smooth, slightly thick dressing. Whisk in a couple of turns of freshly ground black pepper.

Steps:

• Cut the tomatoes crosswise into ½ inch slices; set aside.
• Cut the avocados in half lengthwise, remove the pits, and peel.
• Cut the avocado halves lengthwise into thin slices.
• Sprinkle lemon juice over the avocado pieces to prevent discoloration.
• Arrange tomatoes so they just overlap along the bottom edge of individual salad plates or a platter.
• Place the avocado slices in a fan shape above the tomatoes.
• Sprinkle the onion rings on top of the tomato slices.
• Lightly sprinkle vinegar and oil to taste over the vegetables.
• Grind fresh black pepper over the whole salad.

Steps:

• Spread the avocados, tomatoes, onions and parsley on a platter and season with the salt and pepper.
• Drizzle with the olive oil and lime juice and serve immediately.

Steps:

• In a small bowl whisk together the lemon juice, the vinegar, the mustard, the garlic, the sugar, and salt and pepper to taste, add the oil in a stream, whisking, and whisk the dressing until it is emulsified. Arrange the tomato slices on a deep platter, scatter the onion and the shallots over them, and pour the dressing over the salad. Chill the salad for 20 minutes, sprinkle it with the minced herbs, and garnish it with the herb sprig.

Steps:

• In a large serving bowl, toss together the tomatoes, avocados and red onion. Dust lightly with black pepper, and pour salad dressing over. Cover and chill for at least one hour before serving to blend flavors.
