I'm allergic to avocado. Is there anything I can substitute it with?

I'm not a big fan of avocado, but I love artichokes. I might try this salad without the avocado.

I can't wait to try this salad with different types of dressing. I think it would be great with a balsamic vinaigrette or a honey mustard dressing.

I was hesitant to try this salad because I'm not a big fan of artichokes, but I'm so glad I did! The artichokes are cooked perfectly and they add a delicious nutty flavor to the salad.

The dressing is what really makes this salad. It's tangy and creamy, and it perfectly complements the avocado and artichoke.
