Рецепт Strawberry, Avocado and Spinach Salad with Lime Poppy Seed Dressing
Strawberry, Avocado and Spinach Salad with Lime Poppy Seed Dressing is a delicious and nutritious combination of flavors and textures. Great on it's own as a light meal or on the side with some grilled chicken or fish.
Lately, my son and I have been on an all out avocado kick. We LOVE them! We have them for breakfast, lunch and dinner...and it's a good thing, because avocados are so good for you! They contain more potassium than a banana, they are loaded with heart healthy monounsaturated fatty acids, they are full of fiber, and they taste wonderful in this salad.
The Lime Poppy Seed Dressing is killer! So darn good and easy to make too! To make the dressing, I put all the ingredients except the poppy seeds in my magic bullet and just gave it a whirl, then added the poppy seeds. You will have more dressing than you need for this one salad, so store the leftovers in the fridge and just whip up with a fork before using again, as it will separate when stored.
If you love strawberries, avocados and lime, this salad is a must make for you! Besides being absolutely delicious, it's so pretty too! Pretty like a sunny spring day!
