2 ripe avocados
200g fresh mozzarella
1 handful of fresh thyme leaves
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp lemon juice
Salt and black pepper to taste
Directions
- Slice the avocados thickly and tear the mozzarella into bite-sized pieces. If using cherry tomatoes, halve them.
- In a bowl, gently toss the avocado slices with half of the fresh thyme leaves, a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil, a squeeze of lemon juice, and a pinch of salt and black pepper. Let it sit for a few minutes to absorb the flavours.
- On a serving platter or individual plates, arrange the seasoned avocado slices and torn mozzarella. Sprinkle the remaining fresh thyme leaves evenly over the salad. Drizzle a bit more extra virgin olive oil and lemon juice over the entire salad. Adjust seasoning with additional salt and black pepper if needed. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Optional: add some halved cherry tomatoes
