Crab & Avocado Salad with Fruit Salsa

Submitted by: USA WEEKEND columnist Pam Anderson 
My crab salad with fruity-salsa flavorings is simple and appealing. Sliced avocados anchor and enrich this lively, colorful dish. If possible, select lump or backfin crab. The larger the crab chunks, the fewer shell fragments to pick out.

An easy salad to make with a bag of salad greens, pineapple, bacon bits, nuts and toasted coconut. Use fresh pineapple, if you can, and substitute toasted almonds for the macadamia nuts, if desired.

'Tartine' is the French word for a slice of bread with a topping. Spread herbed goat cheese on crusty bread and broil. Toss together beets, avocadoes and greens for an usual, beautiful meal that combines warm with cool, bitter with sweet, and creamy with crisp.

A lovely baby shrimp and chive salad tucked into avocado halves. The combination of flavors and textures - especially the creamy mayonnaise dressing spiked with Worcestershire and chili sauce - is sensational.
