"A very simple, very delicious salad, that makes a perfect starter for dinner parties."

1 pinch ground black pepper

1 avocado - peeled, pitted and sliced
2 small tomatoes, each cut into 8 wedges

DIRECTIONS:
1. In a small bowl, whisk together the mustard, olive oil, balsamic vinegar and pepper. Arrange the slices of avocado and tomato alternately like the spokes of a wheel on one big serving plate, or individual plates. Drizzle lightly with the dressing, and serve immediately.
