Strawberries, red onion and papaya are tossed in a creamy avocado dressing in this strawberry salad recipe. Serve with mâche, a tender baby lettuce or any mixed baby greens.

Directions

Avocado Dressing

Place one avocado, lime juice, garlic, jalapeño, cilantro and scallions in a blender and puree until smooth. Add olive oil slowly while the motor is running. Season with salt and thin with water, 1 tablespoon at a time. The consistency of dressing should be slightly thinner than ketchup.
