You know what’s challenging? Making a salad that is tasty, quick, filling and healthy. And for me it always starts with avocado I always have a bunch of them hanging around. Then you have beans – Love beans! How can you not love beans? Especially Fiber rich white beans. In my household, we eat avocados with everything I mean EVERYTHING. So when am making a late dinner for the family and I want to serve something light, like a salad, without any other adornments. I have to make it substantial for hubby to even consider it dinner, and in these cool months this salad is just a nice refreshing contrast after the season of rich and heavy foods. This refreshing salad incorporates my favorite ingredients in the kitchen- corn, avocados and white beans, together with tomatoes, tuna and drizzled with herb vinaigrette or low fat ranch dressing. I love the herb dressing but hubby likes it with ranch dressing. You decide. When making salads if your ingredients are not fresh or don’t taste good the finished product would not taste good, either. So keep that in mind when buying your ingredients. Serve on a bed of salad or use tender spinach leaves. Have 1-2 extra avocados, if you would like to serve the salad in avocados. Recipe for low fat ranch here. You may omit the tuna to make it a vegan meal Enjoy!
