NOTES : This is a wonderful salad! Great for when those lovely avocados come into season. Note: Be sure to buy the rough-skinned Haas avocados; the smooth-skinned green avocados are horrid and I personally think the growers should be required to till under their orchards! :) Recipe by: Lea & Perrins pamphlet, circa 1980 Posted to MC-Recipe Digest V1 #720 by Rooby <MsRooby@...> on Aug 04, 1997
