Greek Salad With Avocado

Kozmic Blues's Note:

Creamy avocado adds a really nice touch to all the tanginess found in traditional Greek salads. I make this using Marinated Tofu - (In the Style of Feta Cheese) for the feta cheese. Inspired from a recipe I saw on Chuck's Day Off (Cooking Channel)

I enjoyed this salad with the Marinated Tofu - (In the Style of Feta Cheese). I used regular cucumber and scaled the recipe down for one. I did add a pinch of sugar to the dressing. Yum, thanks! Made for Vegetarian Swap-Oct. 2011.
