Dinner was a little fishy tonight...

So mama found a new favorite recipe blog: The Whole Life Nutrition Kitchen. And of course, I got to be a guinea piggy for a new food. Some of my favorite foods are avacado and fish, so mama found a fish salad with avacado mayonnaise recipe. Little does she know that I've decided I don't like either one anymore!! Welcome to the world of the picky eater.

She thought you might enjoy it though, and there will be pictures to come. Here is the recipe, which can also be found here.

{Avocado Mayonnaise}

I don't have an exact recipe for this because I just add ingredients until the consistency and taste are just right.

1 to 2 small avocados
1 to 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 to 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 to 3 tablespoons water
sea salt or Herbamare, to taste

Place all ingredients into a bowl or large mug and blend with an immersion blender (hand held blender). You can also use a blender or food processor, but given the small quantity of mayo you will be making it is much easier and more efficient to use a hand blender (makes clean-up easier too).

{Salmon Salad Sandwich}

I don't have any measurements for this either. But this is the type of meal that needs no measuring, just use your intuitions and let your taste buds guide you.

leftover cooked salmon, broken into pieces (canned or smoked salmon would also work)
avocado mayonnaise
diced carrot
diced celery
chopped green or red onion
1 to 2 cloves garlic, crushed
capers
finely chopped parsley
sea salt or Herbamare, to taste

Place all ingredients into a small bowl and gently mix together with a fork. Place a few scoops onto a slice of your favorite gluten-free bread, add some lettuce and another slice of bread. That's it! Enjoy!
