Best Salad Ever

[Glenn W]

That is a pretty bold statement--- and admittadly, there are no "bests" in the culinary world--- but Nick's (Seabisquit) Avacodo salad is as good as it gets as a compliment with fish.
I made this conconction up last night and served with a grilled Yellowtail Snapper (can you believe that?--- a fresh Yellowtail in a fish market in Virginia).
This combination was so good that after I got up from the dinner table to relax, my thoughts were on how dang good my supper was.

As with most everything in life, I did not follow directions all the way. SWMBO is no fan of Cilantro so I substituted Medetrainian Basil (not as sweet as Sweet Basil-- has a bit of a peppery kick to it). Also, I could not find the type of peppers recommended and had to subsitute Jalapino's instead--- enough heat and perfect flavor for me

Here is the Greek Grouper Grim Reaper's recipe ( say that 3 times) once again:
Thanks again Nick

Glad to hear you enjoyed it Glenn. There is something magical about avocado, tomato, citrus and fresh fish.
Blowing 20+ again today, so my fresh fish will have to wait!
