Avocado Beet Salad with a Hawaiian Twist!
With the New Year among us, and our recent introduction of our Hawaiian Health and Wellness Collection, we wanted to take the time to share our Avocado Beet Salad with you!
Our family loves salads and we have been enjoying making our own salad dressings to coat with whatever greens and vegetables we have at the time. We used the Maiden Hawaii Macadamia Premium Culinary Oil as our base for our salad dressing and it did not disappoint!
We added the Macadamia Nut Oil, fresh garlic, lemon juice, The Salt with Aloha Maui Onion Gourmet Sea Salt and pepper to taste. Then we combined Arugula, Beets, and Avocado (from our backyard) and tossed it all together. Delicious!!!! (recipe below)
The Macadamia Nut Oil is made with 100% Hawaiian macadamia nuts from farmers on Hawai'i Island and a premium expeller-pressed oil. Extremely high in Omega 7; a good source of vitamin E. Use for high-heat cooking or flavorful finishing oil and dressings. May also be used in baking and frying too!
