Lettuce avocado salad and lime dressing

Step 1

Pull the lettuce leaves from the head, rinse gently under cold water and lay out on clean towels to dry. Use a spoon to remove the flesh in one piece from each half of the avocado. Slice the avocado flesh into thin wedges.

Step 2

Arrange the lettuce leaves on a plate and top with the avocado wedges, spring onions and coriander.

Step 3

Finish with a healthy drizzling of the dressing and serve.
