Key Ingredients for this Blackberry Walnut Avocado Salad.
This super simple salad has a ton of great flavours, let’s get into it!
Blackberries- Tangy, juicy, tart – they got it all. You can either slice them or leave them whole.
Walnuts – Turns out I’m a massive walnut guy. The darker you toast them, the nutter and almost sweeter they get!
Avocados – They add a ton of creamy texture you won’t want to skip on!
Feta – Adds a nice little salty bite!
Maple Syrup – Used in the dressing, it works so well with the walnuts, avocados and Feta.
Making a maple dijon Dressing.
This is a super easy dressing, all you need is a mason jar, a few simple household ingredients and some elbow grease.
Into a mason jar, add garlic, lemon, dijon, maple syrup, salt, pepper and of course good quality olive oil.
Seal your jar well and give it a really good shake! Shake, shake, shake until it’s fully emulsified. Store it in the fridge for up to 5 days.
