Ingredients

  • 2 avocados, peeled, pitted and halved
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • 4 slices of Le Double JOIE, rind removed
  • 45 ml (3 tbsp.) olive oil
  • 15 ml (1tbsp.) balsamic vinegar
  • 5 ml (1 tsp.) honey
  • 1 shallot, finely chopped
  • 30 ml (2 tbsp.) pine nuts
  • 4 Boston lettuce leaves
  • 125 ml (1/2 cup) cherry tomatoes, halved

Preparation

Preheat the oven grill.

Drizzle the avocados with lemon juice. With the tip of a knife, score a grid on the surface of the avocado halves.

Fill the insides of the avocado halves with the Le Double JOIE cheese and cook them on a very hot grill for about 5 minutes.

Meanwhile, prepare the vinaigrette. Beat the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and honey in a bowl. Add the shallot. Then, add salt and pepper. Set aside.

In a frying pan, toast the pine nuts while stirring. Set aside.

When serving, place a lettuce leaf on each plate. Lay a grilled avocado half on the lettuce leaf. Top with the cherry tomatoes, black olives, and pine nuts. Drizzle with the vinaigrette, and serve.
