Crispy Avocado Salad Recipes

CRISPY AVOCADO SUMMER SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350.
• Carefully slice your avocado in half and remove the pit. Slice each half into 5-6 pieces, then carefully slide the skin off.
• Divide your crust ingredients into three wide bowls. The first with flour, nutritional yeast, salt and pepper, second with almond milk, third with bread crumbs.
• Roll each slice of avocado into flour mixture until fully coated, dunk into the almond milk, then gently toss in bread crumbs. Transfer the avocado to a greased baking sheet. Do this for all slices of avocado.
• Spray the breaded avocado with cooking spray and bake for 20-25 minutes.
• While the avocado is baking, slice and dice your tomatoes, peaches, and onion.
• Assemble your salad by throwing all ingredients into a large bowl or dividing between 2-4 bowls. Top with a drizzle of vegan honey mustard.
• EAT UP.

CRISPY AVOCADO, BACON & TOMATO SALAD

Steps:

• For the Crispy Avocado: Halve your avocado and run a sharp knife gently around the perimeter of each half to loosen the meat from the skin. Gently remove the skin and the seed and discard.
• Slice each half into wedges, about 8-10. Don't slice them too thin; you want them to hold up to the breading and frying. Sprinkle the wedges with a pinch of kosher salt and pepper.
• Place the flour in a shallow bowl. Place the beaten egg in another bowl. Mix together the panko and Parmesan cheese in a third bowl. Dredge each slice of avocado in the flour, gently shake off any excess flour. Dip into the egg mixture, then finally into the panko mixture, coating all sides well. Set aside.
• Pour just enough oil in a frying pan to just cover the bottom. Heat over medium high heat until oil becomes hot enough to fry. Gently set avocado pieces in the hot oil. Fry on all sides until golden, a total of about 1 1/2 - 2 minutes. With a spatula gently remove from the pan and drain on a paper towel-lined plate. This may be done in batches.
• For the Salad: Assemble salad by layering lettuce, tomatoes, shaved Parmesan cheese and crumbled bacon. Top with crispy avocado.
• For the Honey-Lime Dressing: Combine honey, vinegar, garlic, lime juice, salt and pepper in a Mason jar; shake until fully combined. Ingredients may, also, be whisked in a bowl. Drizzle over salad.
• For the Drizzle: Combine the ranch dressing and Sriracha in a small bowl and mix until fully incorporated. Drizzle over salad.

CRISPY BACON AND AVOCADO SALAD

Steps:

• Make a French Dressing. Put the vinegar, oil, lemon juice, mustard and brown sugar into the jar. Season with the salt and pepper.
• Screw the lid of the jar on tightly and shake the contents well for a minute. Pour into a jug ready to serve.
• Wash and dry the lettuce. Shred it and put it into the bowl.
• Chop up the cucumber and apple. Peel the avocado and cut the flesh into medium-sized chunks. Mix with the lettuce.
• Cut the rind off the bacon rashers and grill under a low to medium heat for about 6 minutes, turning occasionally.
• Allow to drain on kitchen towel.
• Slice the warm bacon into small pieces. Gently mix the pieces into the salad. Sprinkle with parsley.
• Serve while the bacon is still warm with the jug of French dressing.

SESAME CUCUMBER AND AVOCADO SALAD

Steps:

• Make the dressing: Place the sesame oil, rice vinegar, sesame seeds, sugar, soy sauce and red-pepper flakes into a small bowl. Add 1 tablespoon of water and whisk until emulsified. Taste, and adjust seasonings. (Dressing should taste acidic, a little sweet and salty.)
• When you're ready to eat, prepare the salad: Halve the avocados and discard the pits. Using a small paring knife, carefully score the avocado flesh into 1/2-inch cubes, avoiding cutting through the skin. Use a large spoon to scoop out the avocado flesh (in one spoonful, if possible), as close to the skin as possible. Transfer avocado cubes to a large bowl and add the dressing; toss gently.
• Add the cucumbers and scallions and toss everything together. Season with salt and black pepper, top with more sesame seeds, and serve immediately.
