300 FRUIT RECIPES 



A third method of making salad with the avocado is to 

 combine it with cress, a Uttle chopped onion, radishes, 

 cucumbers, lettuce, beets — in varying combinations, but 

 always with the French dressing of oil, vinegar, salt, and 

 red pepper. 



Still another way is to use the smooth-rubbed pulp with 

 a little oil (in place of the oil added to the yolk of egg for 

 mayonnaise), and with pepper, salt, and lemon or lime 

 juice to taste, serving with crisp lettuce. 



The sliced fruit is sometimes used as a garnish for meat 

 dishes and is also served with wine, sugar, and spices; 

 may be peeled, sliced, and fried, or the mashed pulp used 

 for sandwiches with lemon juice, pepper, and salt.
