Cool, creamy avocados have a soft texture and smooth taste that contrasts very well with crisp lettuce and veggies. It goes well on salads with seafood or southwestern flavors. When picking your avocados, if the fruit gives a little when you push it with your finger, it's ripe. If it caves in or doesn't budge it's either overly ripe or not yet ready to eat.
