Ingredients
-
5 ounces
arugula, washed and spun dry
-
2 cups
cubed seedless watermelon

1
avocado, diced

1/8 cup
extra virgin olive oil

1
lime (the juice of 1 lime)

1/4 teaspoon
cayenne pepper

salt and pepper to taste
Directions
-
In a large salad bowl, toss the arugula and watermelon. Set aside.
-
In a medium bowl, whisk together olive oil, lime juice, cayenne pepper and salt and pepper to taste. Add cubed avocado to the vinaigrette and toss very (very!) gently. This step prevents the avocado from browning in the salad.
