Fresh Greens Avocado With A Lime Vinaigrette Recipes

Steps:

• For the cilantro-jalapeno vinaigrette: Whisk together the cilantro, lime juice, vinegar, cumin, sugar, jalapeno, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds pepper in a small bowl. Slowly drizzle in the oil, whisking, until the vinaigrette comes together and is well blended. (The vinaigrette makes enough for about 5 salads; refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 5 days.)
• For the salad: Soak the onion in a bowl of cold water for 10 minutes, then drain.
• Add the drained onion to a large bowl with the mixed greens, chicken, tomatoes and 2 tablespoons of the vinaigrette. Toss together and season with salt and pepper. Cut the avocado into small pieces. Top the salad with the avocado and a squeeze of lime and sprinkle with the tortilla chips.

Steps:

• Salad -- in a large bowl, mix up the greens. Add the onion, avacado, cilantro, beans, salt and pepper and cherry tomatoes.
• Dressing -- mix all the dressing ingredients in a measuring cup and stir well.
• Finish -- Just toss the salad dressing over the salad and that simple. A great unique flavor. Don't be afraid to make this a whole dinner. Add some rotisserie chicken, or grilled shrimp, anything. Just have fun with it.
• You can even top this with some good Mexican shredded cheese. It is a great salad. Even chopped up fresh fried tortillas or even just corn chips for a little crunch.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine oil, lime juice, shallot, fish sauce, sugar and garlic; season with salt and pepper. Whisk until well blended, then stir in half of the cilantro. Reserve half of the dressing in a small bowl for serving.
• Arrange lettuce in an even layer on a serving platter. Add mangoes, snap peas and avocados to the large bowl and gently toss to evenly coat in the dressing.
• Arrange salad over lettuce and garnish with the remaining cilantro. Serve with the reserved dressing on the side, for drizzling.
