Every Fourth of July, we head up to my sister's in-laws home in York Harbor, Maine. A neighbor brought a similar salad to this one for a BBQ. He used herbs from his garden, including lovage, although I've left it out as it's a little difficult for most people to find, and I've add a few more veggies from my CSA box. But really, the thing that sets this recipe apart from the others is the contrast of the avocado and thyme. I would never in a million years have guessed that these two would be such good friends. But it works. —CheapBeets
