Green salad with Avocado and Heart of Palm

Photobucket
This is a simple salad.. I love Avocado and Heart of Palm so in this salad I have the best of both worlds. Usually I toss in some segmented oranges, but my son ate the last one an hour before dinner! Go figure! The dressing is easy and very healthy. Beauty boost : Avocados are healthy in many ways.. many believe that they help in reducing wrinkles, I'd like to think that!
Avocado includes necessary minerals like potassium, calcium, vitamin C and K, folic acid, copper, sodium and dietary fibers. An avocado a day keep the doctor away!
