A Tasty Tomato and Avacado Salad
June 28, 2007

So, I'm still super busy with packing. The Quake 4 multiplayer demo and Metroid Prime have me captivated for what little free time I have. I did, however, make a tasty salad last night. A salad says you? We've all had those before! Lettuce, add some other stuff... aha, but not this one!

Tasty Tomato and Avacado Salad!

• 3 Tomatos
• 2 Avocados
• Half package of Feta Cheese
• Tasty Vinaigrette

Cut everything in hearty chunks and mix well. Tada! Tasty treat. I also marinated some left over steak in the vinaigrette and put it on top. It's not a meal if nothing died for it.

About the vinaigrette? Just mix equal parts balsamic vinegar and vegetable oil. I like to add in half a teaspoon each of garlic powder, dill and salt for added flavor. If you're lacking a proper salad bottle for mixing, you can always dump it all in a cocktail shaker. If you're going that route, go ahead and use your jigger to measure up a jigger each of oil and vinegar since it makes just the right amount for this salad. Just be careful to clean everything out, lest your next Gin Fizz may end up tasting a bit like salad dressing.

Some nice high quality hearty bread would make a nice side item for this salad and certainly some nice red wine will make everyone enjoy it all the more. Yum. Now I'm hungry!
