Introduction
We just wanted something simple and light for dinner and what a better way to have salad. I always enjoy Belgian endives and love the fresh crisp feeling with each bite and so easy to pair with any vinaigrette sauce too. Avocados on hand, endives and a couple of ingredients for the vinaigrette, and in less than 20 minutes’ dinner was served.
Of course this salad is excellent alongside to any poultry or beef dish. Perfect to bring to any pool parties this summer. The lemon will not allow the avocado to turn brown and will not need immediate refrigeration.
