Argentinian Salad

Argentinian Salad

(4-6 servings)

Ingredients:

3 tbsp. Water

2 tbsp. Fresh Lime Juice

1 ½ tbsp. Extra Virgin Olive Oil

¼ tsp. Salt

¼ tsp. Black Pepper

2 Green Onions (scallions), thinly sliced (white & green parts)

2-3 tbsp. Fresh Cilantro, chopped

1 (14 oz.) can Hearts of Palm, sliced ½ inch thick

1-1 ½ cup Fresh Tomato, chopped

1 medium Fresh Avocado, chopped

Directions:

In a medium bowl, combine the water, juice, oil, salt and pepper with a whisk. Using a rubber spatula, mix in the onion and cilantro. Now fold in the hearts of palm, tomato and avocado to mix well but not destroy them. Chill 2 hours before serving. Gently toss just before service. If serving as a first course, place on a lettuce leaf lined plate.

Note: You want the hearts of palm, tomato and avocado to be roughly the same size pieces after slicing/chopping.

Note: You could use cherry or grape tomatoes in this recipe. Just half them if you do use them.
