AVOCADO SALAD 

Cool early summer salad;  nice to fix when the price of avocados comes down.  Makes an excellent side to any BBQ, but can also be an elegant part of a gourmet meal.

3 	lg. ripe avocados, peeled, pitted, and cubed
1 	lg. tomato, chopped
1/2	orange, yellow, or red bell pepper, seeded and chopped
1/4	c. balsamic vinegar*
2  	T. olive oil*
1/4	tsp. sea salt*
1/8	tsp. pepper*



Toss avocado, tomato and bell pepper in a bowl.  Combine vinegar, olive oil, salt, and pepper, then pour over salad. Serve or chill for later.

* May substitute a bottled balsamic vinaigrette for these ingredients.  Also, try other vegetables and add-ins to enhance your salad, if desired.
