Avocados are natures answer to fast food.  This is my current favorite lunch (or quick supper).  There's no cooking required and it takes about 1 minute - OK maybe 2, to assemble.  Plus it's tremendously good for you, these luscious fruits are packed with potassium, folic acid and vitamin K, not to mention good sources of vitamins B6, C and E.  On a more practical note, this is a totally delicious AND filling meal.  Could you possibly ask for a better lunch? In fact what is your favorite lunch?

Avocado Lunch Special

Ingredients;

1 avocado

2 tablespoons of your favorite mayonnaise

Zest of a lime

A couple of squeezes of lime juice

Sea salt

Freshly ground black pepper

Fresh herbs - your favorite or whatever you have on hand - I used thyme and basil from the garden

1 tablespoon capers (optional)

A sprinkle of red wine vinegar

A sprinkle of olive oil

A scattering of red pepper flakes

A sliced tomato

In a medium sized bowl mix together the mayonnaise, salt, pepper, lime zest and juice.

Slice the tomatoes, lay on the side of a plate.  Cut the avocados in half, fill with the mayonnaise mixture, top with a drizzle of olive oil, red wine vinegar, capers, red pepper flakes and fresh herbs.

That's it!
