This is a fabulous dish and always a hit. I even made it once for a friend’s wedding for 60 people. Don’t recommend at that scale, and because the avocado does not last too well, I recommend devouring within a day or two!

This a great recipe for pot luck dinners. Everyone raves about it. Keep the dressing and avocado separate if it has to travel. Add them when you arrive. Smoked chicken is fine if you can't find turkey.
