Avocado Salad with Raspberries Recipe
Avocado Salad with Raspberries is an amazingly delicious seasonal salad which serves two imperative duties. You can either serve it as a light dish with some tortilla chips or present it as a side dish in lunches, dinner or parties and get-togethers. Avocados, main ingredients of the salad, are no doubt high in fats but their creaminess is nicely complemented by the fruity vinaigrette and fresh raspberries.
