This salad was inspired by my son and his girlfriend who came to see my husband and I two weeks ago. We had a wonderful time together hiking, laughing, dining, and finding out that my son may have the same sensitivity to dairy as I do. I was inspired to make a salad to show him that he did not need sour cream and that he would not miss it. Avocado Bliss is a cream that is just as wonderful on the salad as it is spread on a sandwich in place of mayo. Even if you don't have a dairy allergy or sensitivity you will love this salad.
