Alkaline Diet Recipe #57 Avo Summer Mexican Salad!

This is a wonderful salad filled with surprisingly delightful textures and flavours and has become one of my favourites in the past few weeks. Even though it is snowing where most of you are, this will bring some summer to your table!

The genius of serving it in a tortilla bowl is just, quite frankly, mindblowing. I love it! It is an idea I stole while I was on a cruise the other week (random, I know – but it was the cheapest way to get from Europe to the States – I actually MADE money!) and since then I’ve tried it a few times and loved it more each time.

So here it is:

The Avocado Summer Mexican Salad

Serves 2

Ingredients

2 Wraps/Tortillas – preferably sprouted and/or gluten free
1/2 pack of firm tofu
1 avocado
1 pink grapefruit
A handful of almonds
4 handfuls of baby spinach
1 spoon of chilli sauce
2 tomatoes
1/2 red onion
1/2 lemon

Instructions

Firstly, get the tortilla bowls ready by preheating the oven to about 180 degrees celsius. Once it has preheated, place the wraps over a medium bowl, push them in slightly and then bake for 8-10 minutes until they’ve formed a bowl shape and crisped up a little. Once they’re done place to one side and cool

While this is cooling, chop up the tofu, onion and tomatoes and mix with the chilli sauce and then place in the fridge for 10 mins to cool a little. While this is cooling, finely chop the almonds and peel and slice the avocado and grapefruit.

Now mix it all together, place in the bowl and top with the spinach before squeezing the fresh lemon on top. Delicious!
