• ½ large avocado, diced
• 1 hard-boiled egg, chopped
• ⅓ cup cherry tomatoes, halved
• ½ cup spinach, chopped

For the Dressing:
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tbsp lemon juice
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 1 tsp sesame oil (optional)
• Salt & pepper to taste


Instructions

In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, sesame oil (if using), salt, and pepper.
