Coach’s Notes:

  • Customize the Crunch: Enhance the texture of the salad by adding diced celery, chopped bell peppers, or sliced almonds for a satisfying crunch.

  • Boost the Flavor: Experiment with additional seasonings or herbs to personalize the taste. Add a pinch of cayenne pepper, a sprinkle of fresh cilantro, or a dash of your favorite hot sauce to kick the salad.

  • Lighten the Calories: If you're watching your calorie intake, you can reduce the amount of avocado or use a smaller avocado to lower the fat content. Alternatively, you can replace some avocado with non-fat Greek yogurt for a creamy yet lower-calorie option.
