Guacamole Steak Salad

This is perfect for parties. I love to serve it up over beautiful lettuce leaves for the ultimate main dish salad experience.

Considering the fact that I wrote an entire cookbook on avocados, eat avocados at least once a day, and spend the majority of my time in California which is known for avocados, I'm always on the prowl for new recipes featuring one of my favorite ingredients! This Guacamole Steak Salad is my new jam.

There are a lot of layers to this so let's start with the steak. It sits in a marinade with a ton of fresh citrus juice, herbs, spiced and peppers. Once it's had a while to soak up all that flavor, it's grilled to perfection. You toss it with everything you'd need to make a traditional guacamole, avocados, tomatoes, red onions, you name it. And then served on a bed of baby romaine lettuce or butter lettuce to make it a knife and fork kinda salad. I'm partial to topping it with a lemon vin which is listed below or a cilantro vinaigrette! Both would tie it all together perfectly!
