Notes
Cut the avocado into medium pieces so it does not fall apart when mixing. Use very fresh cucumber and tomato to keep the salad crisp and light. Blend the milk with the oil and lemon well to form a creamy dressing before adding the mustard, honey and garlic. Mix the salad gently to preserve the avocado pieces. Serve right after preparing or keep refrigerated for a short time.
