Avocado Romaine Salad is a fresh, crisp, and creamy combination of chopped romaine lettuce and ripe avocados. Tossed with ingredients like cherry tomatoes, red onion, and a zesty lemon or lime vinaigrette, this salad is both nutritious and satisfying. The creamy texture of avocado pairs beautifully with the crunch of romaine, making it a perfect side dish or a light meal on its own. Optional add-ins like grilled chicken, croutons, or feta cheese can elevate it further for a heartier option.
