Step 1

Salad – Combine all ingredients in a large bowl; set aside while you make the vinaigrette.

Step 2

Vinaigrette – Combine all ingredients in a small jar with a lid and shake vigorously or in a small bowl and whisk together. Taste dressing and make tweaks if necessary according to taste preferences, i.e. more salt, more honey, more chili powder, etc.

Step 3

Slowly drizzle about half of the vinaigrette over salad and toss gently to combine. You may not use all the vinaigrette depending on preference; extra vinaigrette will keep airtight for many days in the fridge.

Step 4

Salad may be served immediately or up to 1 to 2 days later, noting that avocado will likely oxidize as time passes. I find the flavors marry beautifully after about 4 to 8 hours covered in the fridge, and am willing to compromise the slight color change of the avocado for the enhanced flavor. May be served chilled or at room temp.
