Avocado Salad Recipe.

2 teaspoons fresh oregano

1/2 teaspoon sea salt


5 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil


1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice


2 cups cooked lentils


1-2 ripe avocados, quartered


1/4 cup toasted hazelnuts, chopped


1/4 cup minced chives

Smash the oregano and salt into a paste in a mortar and pestle. Gradually work in the olive oil, and then the lemon juice.

Toss the lentils with 2 tablespoons of the oregano oil, taste, and season if needed. Arrange on a platter or in a bowl. Just before serving, cut the avocado into quarters, then slice quite thinly, and arrange on top of the lentils. Drizzle with a bit more of the oil, and sprinkle with the hazelnuts, and chives. A final drizzle of oil might be needed, and perhaps a bit more lemon juice. Enjoy!
