Chef notes
Avocados are one of my all-time favorite foods. This is such a fun recipe that makes the most of versatile avocados, plus it adds the delicious goodness of fresh salmon. Eating healthy never tasted so good!

- 4-6 radishes, finely chopped, plus 1 thinly sliced
- 1 stalk celery, finely chopped
- 1 small shallot, finely chopped
- 1 lemon, juiced
- 1-2 dashes hot sauce
- kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 2 large avocados, well washed

- 1 tablespoons olive oil
Preparation
1.In a bowl, mix together the salmon, mayonnaise, chopped parsley, chopped radishes, chopped celery, shallot, lemon juice, hot sauce a pinch of salt and pepper to taste.
