Mmmmmm. I have blackberries that I’ll use for this, and more summer squash than I can handle. This is so creative! Thanks, Z!

I guess you could add something with less fat. Avocado is rich in fatty acids and healthy fat, so if you want some more protein in your salad I guess you could add tuna, chicken, or some other white fish.
Enjoy!
