My family likes to add chicken or chicken sausage, and feta crumbles to the creamy avocado pasta. Outside of pasta dishes, the avocado pesto is also like an Italian-style guacamole that is flavorful simply as a dip for breadsticks and veggies.

This fusion of Mexican and Italian cuisines was inspired by the Italian Caprese salad.

The following guacamole recipe is my family's favorite version but we change up the ingredients depending on what we have on hand. We really like the combination of the salsa verde with the chopped tomatoes but if we don't have salsa verde, we use any other salsa.

Pairing salmon and spinach with ingredients such as feta cheese, avocado, tomatoes, and salad dressing is an excellent way to introduce your family to salmon and let them start to appreciate the flavor of this healthy fish.
