Raw Broccoli Salad

via my favorite food blog at the moment, Stonesoup, which is all about simple, minimalist cooking, lots of meals that use 5 ingredients or less, and can be ready in 10 minutes or less, and a focus on healthy wholesome food. And surprisingly tasty!

Dressing:
Tablespoon of seeded mustard
2ish tablespoons of sherry vinegar (I couldn't find sherry vinegar so i use red wine vinegar, which is also nom, apparently other good substitutes are rice wine vinegar, champagne vinegar, or white wine vinegar)
4ish tablespoons of good extra virgin olive oil

Salad:
Large head of broccoli, or two small ones
1 Avocado
handful toasted almonds (I prefer slivered almonds)

Mix the dressing ingredients in the bottom of a large bowl.
Chop the broccoli into little bitty trees
Use a spoon to scoop small chunks of avocado out of the skin
Chuck in the almonds
Gently toss/mix all together so everything is covered in the dressing.

Serves 2 as a meal itself, or 4 as a side accompaniment.

So very delish, I've made this a few times now and love it.
