Notes
If you prepare the salad in advance, place everything in the fridge and wait to add vinaigrette until right before serving.
For best results and easy slicing, avocado should be ripe but still a little firm. Overripe avocado will not work great for this recipe.
You can replace the white wine vinegar with champagne or red wine vinegar. If you want to use apple cider vinegar, add 1 extra tablespoon as it's not as pungent as the wine vinegars.
