    Carrot Ginger Avocado Salad this recipe


    I found this Avocado Salad with Carrot-Ginger Dressing recipe over at the Smitten Kitchen, but it's original format came from Gwyneth Paltrow’s GOOP. I added some edamame for protein and a few extra bits to fill it out. If you prefer a little more bite, be generous with the ginger.
