Avocado Pine Nut Salad

Ingredients:
*DRESSING:
4 tablespoons white wine vinegar
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 1/2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
salt and pepper, to taste

*SALAD:
2 medium vine-ripened tomatoes, chopped
1 head green leaf lettuce, chopped
1 head red leaf lettuce, chopped
1 large avocado, chopped (about 1 cup)
1/3 cup pine nuts, toasted
1/4 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded

Directions:

Place dressing ingredients in shaker jar. Shake well (or whisk in a bowl) and refrigerate until chilled.
Add salad ingredients to a large bowl and toss with the chilled dressing (add a little at a time until you have used a desired amount).
Serve immediately.

*Tips:
An easy way to roast raw pine nuts is to dry roast them in a heated saucepan, stirring often so that they do not burn (they burn easily if not watched).
Grill some chicken and marinate it in the salad dressing for a great summer, main-dish salad!
