Additional Comments:

You won't believe how easy this salad is to make and how wonderful it tastes.

At face value, you may think that this recipe is high in fat, but the majority of the fat comes from the avocado which is very good for you. You'll note that the saturated fats (bad fats) are very low.

Remember all fats aren't bad and we need at least some fats in our diet to be healthy.
