Broccoli Salad with Avocado

Serves 4

Ingredients:

1 pound broccoli

1 ripe avocado

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice

Cooking Instructions:

Trim and wash the broccoli and cut it into bite-sized pieces. Steam or boil the broccoli in a large pot until it is just crunchy-tender and bright green, then drain it well, and cool. Peel and pit the avocado, then cut it into small cubes. Fold the avocado into the broccoli. Whisk the olive oil, lemon juice, and mustard together in a small bowl, until well mixed. Toss the broccoli and avocado with the dressing.
