I got the recipe for a tricolore salad from a pack of Sainsbury's cherry tomatoes. "Tricolore" being the three colours of the Italian flag. It can be a complete meal for two if you make enough of it. It's two mozzarella balls cut into bite-size pieces, two avocados sliced into crescents (or chunks!) and a big handful of the best cherry toms you can get your hands on, each one halved. You can get all artistic with the arrangement or you can just more or less bung everything into a big salad bowl. Sprinkle the whole lot generously (don't you just hate "drizzle?") with your finest extra virgin olive oil, grind some pepper over it all and scatter some torn basil leaves over. Not dried basil! You can add salt but I don't think it needs any.

Oddly, they're not big on avocados in Italy though they're gaining ground. Avos are getting a bit political these days as they're regarded as an extremely environmentally-unfriendly crop as well as one which can be rather exploitative of the people who grow them. Dunno...
