1/2cuppitted green olives, chopped (preferably the cracked bitter ones)
3scallions, chopped
2 to 3tablespoonsfresh lemon juice, (she asked me to point out that she meant lemon and never lime)
Salt, to taste
Ground black pepper, to taste
2hard boiled eggs, peeled and chopped (optional)
1/2cupIsraeli or French feta cheese, crumbled (optional)
Hot or toasted pita breads
To Prepare
In a mixing bowl, mash the avocados with a fork to a chunky paste. Add the olives, scallions, lemon juice, salt and pepper and mix well. Add chopped egg and/or crumbled feta if you are going to use.
Spread the avocado salad over toasted pita bread or a slice of bread. For the perfect Israeli dinner - eat with a side of an Israeli salad and scrambled eggs (she pointed out I should add that too...)
