Excellent!!

Far too much fat in this recipe. In addition, 25 calories is not low for a salad. I wish I could eat raw onion, but I can't digest them. I'm not even supposed to eat oranges because of GERD. Is there any way to alter the amount of fat, especially the saturated fat unless that's the avocado?

It was very easy and pleasing. My only word of caution is to be sure you use enough lettuce or the salad dressing will soak your plate but my family really liked it!
