After making this as a tossed salad, I recommend making individual salads on plates. Once this salad is tossed with dressing, it must be served immediately or it gets soggy. I also added some shredded carrot to liven up the appearance. The dressing was just yummy - sweet and tangy, creamy and spicy.
4 cups salad greens, torn
1 ripe avocado, 1/4" dice

Top with the avocado pieces and shredded carrot.
Drizzle with dressing.
Serve immediately.
If you need to make this ahead - toss the avocado pieces in lime juice, then assemble the individual salads. Drizzle with dressing just before serving.
Serves: 4
