Ingredients
1 head romaine lettuce, chopped
2 cups arugula leaves
2 cups spinach leaves
1 medium onion, thinly sliced
1 medium avocado, peeled, seeded and cut in cubes
(sprinkle the cubes with lime juice to prevent discolouring)
2 cups cherry tomatoes
Juice of 1 large lime
Salt
Fresh ground black pepper
Directions
- Place the romaine lettuce in a large salad bowl. Top with the arugula lettuce and spinach leaves. Toss or use tongs to mix the greens.

- Place the avocado and the tomatoes on top of the greens. Sprinkle with just a little salt and pepper. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to serve.
