Zippy Chicken Salad in Reed Avocado

Everyone has a meatloaf recipe - and everyone has a chicken salad recipe. Here's mine - simple, elegant, healthy (pretty much) and very tasty. I don't present this as anything other than a great entree using some elements grown on the farm. It is sort of a fruity, curried Waldorf Salad...(it' s also great served on a tender roll, or large, split croissant)

When I can get those monster 16oz smooth, shiny, green-skinned Reed avocados, this will appear on the menu. There are many varieties of avocado and most know the Hass, but then you have Zutano, Bacon, Fuerte, Pinkerton, Reed and the list goes on. You can use whatever you can get. I prefer to make this recipe when the variety the size of a softball comes in season.

One monster avocado makes two potions. One chicken when combined with the vegetables and frit and nuts wil generously serve 6

One half an avocado will make the 'bowl' for the salad.
