Hi! I’ll admit – I had a difficult time writing out the amounts of avocado for this salad, since avocado sizes vary so much! And while I like to be as specific as possible when writing recipes, let me assure you that in this situation, the exact amount doesn’t matter much. You can follow your heart when it comes to adding the avocado :-)

I think the issue you are running into is that the ingredient amounts change in the ingredients list, but not in the ingredients notes. So the “1 ½ large avocados” is written for four servings, and does not change when adjusting for serving size. Sorry for that confusion. For one serving, I would use 1 avocado total (small or large, your pick!), and use about 3/4 of it diced in the salad and 1/4 of it in the dressing. Hope that helps, and hope you like the recipe!
