Ingredients
- 2 whole Avocado
- 4 stalks Celery
- 0.5 medium Red onion
- 1 whole Lemon
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Slice the avocados in half, remove the pits, and carefully scoop out the flesh. Cut the avocado into bite-sized pieces and transfer them to a large salad bowl.
Step 2
Wash the celery stalks thoroughly and slice them thinly on a diagonal. Add the celery slices to the bowl with the avocado.
Step 3
Peel the red onion and slice it thinly into half-moons. Add the sliced onion to the salad bowl.
Step 4
Finely chop the fresh parsley and sprinkle it over the salad ingredients.
Step 5
In a small mixing bowl, combine the juice of one lemon, olive oil, honey, salt, and ground black pepper. Whisk the mixture until it emulsifies and becomes a smooth dressing.
Step 6
Pour the dressing over the avocado, celery, and onion mixture. Toss gently with a large spoon to coat all the ingredients evenly, being careful not to smash the avocado pieces.
Step 7
Taste the salad and adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper if desired.
Step 8
Serve immediately as a side dish or refrigerate for up to an hour for a chilled salad experience. Enjoy!
