Avocado and pineapple salad is simple but perfectly highlights the subtle creaminess of the avocados and the more assertive pineapple – says my fiancée. I particularly find pineapple and avocado to be strange mixture for a salad - don’t get me wrong I enjoy both pineapple and avocado by themselves or in other recipes, but just not together. Well what I can say my fiancée likes it, maybe you will like it too. Try it!
Ingredients:
- 8 cups iceberg or other crisp lettuce
- 2 cups fresh pineapple chunks
- 1 medium red onion, thinly sliced
- 1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- 1/3 cup white vinegar
- 1/3 cup fresh orange juice
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 2 medium avocados, sliced
- Fresh lime wedges
