My family love a green salad most days of the week. Most of the time it is with a simple dressing of extra virgin olive oil, vinegar and salt. This salad is my party version, as it has a few additional ingredients.
I love the dressing in this salad. I love the creaminess the avocado brings to it. We had it with a barbecue the other day and it was lovely.
The dressing can be made earlier, and kept refrigerated until needed.

Recipe
Serves 8
2 baby cos lettuce

Mustard Dressing:
125ml extra virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons white wine vinegar
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

Make the dressing: Put the oil, vinegar, mustard, garlic, sugar, salt and pepper in a small screw top jar. Put the lid on a shake until the dressing is well blended. Check seasoning, add more if needed.
Wash the salad leaves, drain in a colander or use a salad spinner to dry the leaves. Tear the leaves into smaller pieces.
