What’s Cooking in Gail’s Kitchen? The Daily Special: Avocado on My Mind! Watermelon and avocado, when mixed together, have a uniquely gratifying flavor. Surprised? It’s as refreshing as a walk in the park. Not only is this salad appealing to the eye, it’s easy on the wallet. These two fruits are affordable, low in calories, and can be eaten often since they are packed with nutrients. Permission granted.
AVOCADO ON MY MIND
Ingredients:
1 ripe avocado
1 wedge watermelon, seedless
1/2 lime, sliced
1 tablespoon feta cheese, crumbled
1 sprig cilantro
Instructions:
Open the avocado, discarding seed. Remove pulp. Squeeze lime juice over both halves to prevent discoloration. Chop avocado into pieces and place into a medium-sized bowl. Using a melon-ball utensil, scoop the watermelon into round pieces. Discard rind. Add watermelon balls to bowl, tossing gently. Sprinkle feta cheese over top. Snip cilantro to taste. Garnish with lime slices.
Now that’s 2 things I never thought of putting together, love both thoughβΊ

I love avocados and apple. I think angel hair pasta is another “A” and it can be in a cold pasta salad for summertime. There are my thoughts. . .
