Almost 16 years ago, I was introduced to this salad while working at a health food store in San Francisco. It's an unlikely combination of figs, cantaloupe and avocados, that turns into a surprisingly satisfying summer treat. Served on skewers as an appetizer, or tossed as a salad, it’s sure to delight your palate. Take a look at how this unusual fruity combo comes together. Instructions and original recipe to follow.
Ingredients
cantaloupe, avocados, figs, mint leaves, chives, olive oil, rice vinegar, sugar and salt
Instructions
Cube melon, slice avocados and cut the figs in half. Finely chop the mint and chives and whisk along with the olive oil, vinegar, sugar and salt. If you choose to skewer the fruits, do so before adding the dressing. In that case, add the ingredients to a bowl or platter and drizzle with the dressing before skewing. Enjoy!!
