Happy Wednesday!! I’ve been waiting for the right moment to bring out this mega salad and today’s the day. Welcome Avocado and Heirloom Tomato Salad!!
I’ve never been one to wait for permission, but now that it’s officially spring, I’m planning on doing some backyard / picnic / outside / park style entertaining ALL THE TIME. There’s nothing better than an outdoor soiree and big giant boards full of food like this Avocado and Heirloom Tomato Salad. Just prep all your ingredients, arrange them on a gorgeous board, and let you guests go to town. Between this and the Bruschetta bar, it really doesn’t get any better!!
If you really wanted to up the ante you could add some fresh mozz!!
