Drat! Drat!! Drat!!! We had that lovely "How Do You Use Avocados" thread going, and I didn't get any of it copied before the format change. It had some scrumptious ideas. I don't usually think of avocados as an ingredient -- when I have a good one, I just eat it sliced and sprinkled with lime juice. To help keep the game going, I went to the Avocado Board site to see what sounded intriguing. This salad was it:
Avocado Mango Rice Salad
This rice salad has a perfect blend of sweet and savory and makes for easy entertaining or packed as a satisfying lunch.
Prep Time: 20 minutes Cook Time: 5 minutes Total Time: 25 minutes
1 ripe Fresh Hass Avocado, halved, seeded, peeled and cubed
2 cups cooked brown rice
1 ripe mango, peeled and cubed
1 (15-ounce) can black beans, drained
1 red bell pepper, diced
2 scallions, thinly sliced
2 Tbsp. fresh lime juice
1 Tbsp. olive oil
2 Tbsp. chopped fresh cilantro
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
In a large bowl combine rice, beans, mango, bell pepper, scallions, lime juice, oil, cilantro, salt and pepper. Add avocado; toss gently.
Can be served with white rice instead of brown, or over mixed greens.
Note: Large avocados are recommended for this recipe. A large avocado averages about 8 ounces. If using smaller or larger size avocados adjust the quantity accordingly.
Next Ingredient: Fresh Lemons or Limes

Traditional Spanish Sangria Recipe
Ingredients
If you want to make a slightly more modern version (still not anything too crazy!) add in chopped up chunks of green apple and peach. For the modern version you can also top off with a carbonated beverage (lemon soda, orange soda, or soda water) right before serving for some bubbles. Oh, yeah!
Next ingredient: Romaine lettuce

Here's another two-fer ("fer to keep this game going") -- on the current Peaches thread, there is a link to "The Peach Truck." I had just read Zhills' recipe above and thought this sounded like a nice summery mate to it. (Recipe using romaine follows.)
Sparkling Peach Sangria
(http://thepeachtruck.com/blogs/the-peach-truck-kitchen)
Makes approx. two gallons
This recipe differs from many, as it is essentially a sangria concentrate that is blended with seltzer when served over ice.
6 fresh peaches, divided
2 bottles rosé wine
2 cups peach-flavored brandy
2 cups vodka (or peach vodka – see recipe on site)
1 can lemonade concentrate
1 cup peach syrup (see recipe in next post)
2 fresh lemons, washed and sliced
4 1-liter bottles of seltzer
fresh mint for garnish
Start by washing and slicing four peaches (the remaining two will be used for garnish) and set aside. Add wine, brandy, vodka, lemonade concentrate, peach syrup and sliced lemons to a large gallon jar. Stir to combine before adding sliced peaches. Refrigerate overnight.
To serve, pour 2 ounces of sangria mix and 2 ounces of seltzer in a glass with ice. Garnish with fresh mint and sliced peaches.

Layered Caribbean Chicken Salad
(Originally posted by Carol1229 in 07-2012)
Carol’s Note: Since I double the dressing amount, I spoon half over top and serve the other half on the side. Sprinkle cashews on top just before serving.
Salad
4 cups torn romaine lettuce
3 cups cut-up cooked chicken
1 can (15 oz) black beans, drained, rinsed
1 1/2 cups chopped tomatoes
2 ripe medium mangoes, seed removed, peeled and chopped
1/2 cup cashews , for garnish
Dressing
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1/3 cup lime juice
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
2 tablespoons sugar
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon, if desired
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
Red pepper sauce, if desired
In 3-quart glass trifle bowl, layer lettuce, chicken, black beans, tomatoes and mangoes. (The original post included a delicious-looking picture.)
In jar with tight-fitting lid, shake dressing ingredients. Drizzle over salad; serve immediately. Or, cover and refrigerate salad and dressing separately up to 4 hours; drizzle salad with dressing just before serving.
Tip: Mix the flavor of this salad up by substituting fresh mint for the cilantro and pineapple or papaya for the mangoes.

Here's the recipe for the Peach Syrup in the Sangria recipe above.)
(http://thepeachtruck.com/blogs/the-peach-truck-kitchen)
The flavor of fresh Georgia peaches is pure summertime. This brilliantly-colored peach syrup captures that essence in a bottle, perfect for using in desserts, cocktails and iced tea throughout the year. Best of all, it takes only four simple ingredients and minutes to prepare.
Makes approx. 4 cups
4 fresh peaches
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice (juice of about 2 lemons)
3 cups granulated sugar
1 cup boiling water
Microwave Method:
This method is not only easy, but results in a fresh peach flavor. Wash and pit the peaches. Cut into wedges and place in a large microwave-safe glass bowl. Pour lemon juice and sugar on top (do not stir) and cover very tightly with plastic wrap (wrapping all the way around the bowl to seal in steam while cooking). Microwave on high for 5 minutes. Remove and carefully remove plastic as to not burn yourself on the steam. Stir well. Cover and repeat the process until all sugar has dissolved. Once complete, strain syrup to remove solids. You can save the peaches to use as jam. Whisk in boiling water and transfer syrup to a jar. Makes about 4 cups. Refrigerate until needed.
Stovetop Method:
Cooking on the stovetop will result in a syrup with more of a peach jam flavor rather than fresh peach flavor. Wash and pit the peaches. Cut into wedges. Place peaches, lemon juice and water in a saucepan. Add sugar on top (do not stir). Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Reduce to a very low simmer, cover and cook for 30 minutes. Resist the urge to stir while cooking, as this will break up the peaches. Remove from heat, strain and bottle.

I made this recipe for a luncheon I'm hosting today:
Chicken Salad Veronique (Ina Garten)
4 breasts of chicken with bone
2 celery stalks, diced
1/2 c. mayonnaise
1 tbs. fresh tarragon (chopped)
1 cup. green grapes (halved)
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. ground black pepper
Directions:
Rub the chicken breasts with some olive oil, salt and pepper.
Bake them in the oven for about 40 minutes at 350 degrees.
Let the chicken cool.
Remove chicken from the bone and dice into bite sized pieces.
In a bowl, mix the chicken with the other ingredients.
I hope this is a hit. I'm not one for adding fruit to savory dishes, but this recipe got excellent reviews.

Bahamian Style Coleslaw
Ingredients
1/2 head of cabbage
2 medium carrots
Bahamian Style Coleslaw Dressing
2 tbsps Mayonnaise
2 tbsps Basic Dressing (below)
Juice from 1/2 a lime
Few shakes of Hot Pepper Sauce (or more to taste)
Sea Salt and Pepper
Method
1. Make Basic Dressing (below) and allow to cool.
2. Combine all ingredients for the coleslaw dressing and blend with a wire whisk or in a food processor.
3. Core cabbage and finely shred with sharp knife (don’t chop).
4. Grate carrots, if they are large, or finely slice if they are small.
5. Mix to taste with dressing.
Basic Dressing
Heat together until sugar has dissolved:
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup white vinegar
1/2 cup water Cool,
and add salt and pepper to taste.
Mum’s Note: I always keep this in my fridge in a glass jar with a lid. This is an excellent dressing alone for cucumbers and onions, or beets and onions. A bit of it is wonderful with sauteed red cabbage, sauteed greens, or in potato salad.
