Salad with avocado - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Can I substitute feta cheese with another type of cheese in this salad?

Yes, you can use goat cheese, ricotta salata, or even crumbled blue cheese as alternatives to feta for a different flavor profile.

How can I make this salad vegan-friendly?

To make it vegan, replace the feta with crumbled tofu or a dairy-free cheese alternative and ensure all other ingredients are plant-based.

How long can I store this avocado salad in the fridge?

This salad is best enjoyed fresh, but if stored in an airtight container, it can last up to 1 day. The avocado may brown slightly, so add lime juice to help preserve it.

Can I add protein to this salad to make it more filling?

Absolutely! Grilled chicken, shrimp, or chickpeas are great protein additions that pair well with the flavors of this salad.

What can I use instead of lime juice for dressing?

Lemon juice or a light balsamic vinegar can be used as substitutes for lime juice to add a tangy flavor to the salad.

How can I prevent the avocado from browning if I prepare this salad in advance?

To prevent browning, toss the avocado slices in extra lime juice and store them separately, adding them to the salad just before serving.

Can I freeze this salad for later use?

No, this salad does not freeze well due to the fresh ingredients like avocado and lettuce, which will become mushy when thawed.

What other greens can I use instead of lettuce?

Spinach, arugula, or mixed baby greens are excellent substitutes for lettuce and add different textures and flavors to the salad.

How can I make this salad lower in carbs?

To reduce carbs, you can skip the cherry tomatoes or use fewer of them, and increase the portion of leafy greens and avocado instead.
