How to Make Avocado Olive Salad

  1. In a large bowl, combine 1 tablespoon capers, 2 cloves minced garlic, 2 tablespoons lime juice, 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil, 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar, 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  2. Gently fold in 1 cup pitted Kalamata olives (or your favorite olives) and 2 ripe avocados, diced. Be careful not to overmix to avoid mashing the avocados.
  3. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for 30-45 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. This step is crucial for a perfectly balanced salad!
