A simple salad that puts a ubiquitous supermarket staple to work. Canned hearts of palm have a vegetal, slightly nutty flavor similar to artichokes, and they combine perfectly with butter lettuce and avocado.

I picked up a tub of lump crab meat recently so I decided use some of it to make a quick and delicious salad to put into avocado halves. I found a recipe on Epicurious that looked simple and delicious. I tossed the crab with a bit of lime, cilantro, light mayonnaise, and red onion. The crab salad tasted so good with the creamy avocado. My husband and I both enjoyed this dish and I look forward to making it again.
Cilantro and Lime Crab Salad in Avocado Halves: Adapted recipe by For the Love of Cooking Original recipe on Epicurious 1/2 cup lump crab meat 1/2 tbsp light mayonnaise 1 tbsp fresh cilantro, chopped 2 tsp red onion, diced finely 1-2 tsp jalapeño, diced finely 1 tsp lime zest Juice from 1/2 a lime Sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste Dash of cumin 1 avocado, cut in half, pit removed
