Avocado and Watercress Salad

Ingredients

1/4 cup rice vinegar (not seasoned)
1 tablespoon grated sweet onion
1/4 cup finely grated peeled (Braeburn or Gala) apple
4 teaspoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon sugar
3 tablespoons olive oil
6 cups watercress (thin stems and leaves only; from 1 large bunch)
1 firm-ripe avocado

Directions

Stir together vinegar, onion, apple, soy sauce, and sugar until sugar has dissolved, then stir in oil. Just before serving, toss watercress with enough dressing to coat. Quarter, pit, and peel avocado, then cut crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Gently toss with watercress.

The incredible hard work from Reggie, Ike and the CSA team, the fertile soil and help from Mother Earth makes this veg the best I have ever eaten. I can honestly taste the goodness everyone puts in to this amazing project.
