2 shallots (sliced)
1/2 cup cashews (toasted or roasted)

1/8 teaspoon oregano
pinch chili flakes
1/3 cup olive oil

Steps:

  • Prepare the salad dressing by mixing all ingredients in a small bowl. Use a whisk to blend all ingredients together until the dressing is thick and emulsified. Adjust the chili flakes to your taste. Also, read notes for adjusting the sweet : tangy balance of the dressing and work accordingly.

  • Arrange the avocado slices over the greens in clumps of 3-5 slices. Add the Mandarin Oranges over the greens, followed by the shallots and nuts, and sprinkle some chili flakes on top. Chili flakes are optional, but even a tiny pinch adds a great contrast of spice to the sweetness of the Mandarin Oranges.

We have a 2-1/2-acre avocado grove. It's located on a high slope just north of town. In the distance, we see foothills covered with avocado and citrus groves. Those two crops make a great combination in this salad. Friends always request it. -Dorothy Kostas, Escondido, California
