How To Make This Simple Appetizer

Cut the avocados in half lengthwise. Remove the pit.
Cut the lemon in half. With one half rub the avocado halves all over the exposed flesh to prevent them from oxidizing, which would result in the surface turning brown, not very appetizing.
Next, mix up the vinaigrette dressing which is also very quick and easy. (check it out with the link I have provided)
When you have placed the avocado halves on the serving plate(s), drizzle each half with the avocado vinaigrette dressing. The only steps left now are to serve and eat!

If you have never had or made Tapenade, it is easy and scrumptious. Here is another version of this yummy dish Tapenade Dip. Both are simply made of puréed or finely chopped olives, capers, anchovies and olive oil and the dip version has a few more ingredients. Just let your guests or family spread it on crackers or crusty bread and serve with fresh vegetables (crudites in France!). Delicious!
