Carrot, avocado, and orange salad

A variation on a recipe I glimpsed in a French magazine on my flight back – crunchy, colorful, and satisfying for lunch today.

As simple as can be:

Julienned carrot and orange, thin slices of avocado, some olive oil and hazelnut oil. Sea salt for crunch and, perhaps, topped with some roasted pumpkin seeds for some earthy flavor.

You’ll need:

  • 5 thin carrots
  • 1 juicy orange (mine came from really far away, South Africa)
  • 1 ripe but firm avocado
  • a pinch of fleur de sel
  • 1 T hazelnut oil
  • 1 tsp olive oil

  1. This looks really delicious, carrots and avocado are my favorite vegetables and the addition of orange is really clever 🙂 I have never seen hazelnut oil here! And I thought I have already tried all oil variations 😀
