Avocado cilantro dressing preparation:
- Place all the ingredients for the avocado cilantro dressing in a small food processor or blender and pulse/blend until the ingredients are well combined and you have a smooth sauce. Save refrigerated until ready to use.
For the Latin chopped salad:
- You can assemble the salad on large platter or in a salad bowl.
- For the platter option, arrange the salad greens as the first layer and then add each vegetable/fruit as if you were setting up a rainbow. For the bowl option, simply add the sliced veggies and fruits on top of the greens.
