Challenge #86 - Changing up Salad

A couple of months back, my husband and I had lunch at  Cuban restaurant.  The only vegetarian or non fried thing on the menu was a watercress and avocado salad.  It was so good, but lacking color as it was mostly all green (watercress, avocado, red onion, and lime dressing).  So I have made my own version using more ingredients for more flavor and color.  I've made it several times and have been enjoying the flavor of watercress to change up my normal salad choices.

Ingredients:
Watercress
Avocado, sliced
Red Onion, thinly sliced
Fennel, thinly sliced
Cherry or grape tomatoes
Lime
Sea Salt

Step #1 - Add  everything to a bowl, sprinkle with sea salt and squeeze lime.  Toss and enjoy.  That simple.

On another note, I recently only started to like fennel after trying it again after many years.  I got this fennel the other day from the farmers market.  As you can see has more fronds than fennel bulb.  The fronds are fabulous in salad.  Just roll the fronds up and running a knife through like you would for herbs, remove the heavy stems and throw into a salad.  Adds a great layer of flavor.
