AVOCADO SALAD WITH WARM TOMATO-BASIL VINAIGRETTE



Avocado Salad with Warm Tomato-Basil Vinaigrette image

Warming the vinaigrette makes this salad special and really brings out the aroma of the fresh basil. It's from Martha Stewart's Quick Cook. I think that adding some grilled shrimp or chicken to this recipe would make a wonderful luncheon dish.
