Here is my confession of the week: I have an addiction to gefilte fish. I love it. And it doesn’t have to be the homemade kind. The frozen loaf is just fine for me and I eagerly wait until Shabbat to have my fill. I even love the jarred stuff (gasp!) because I grew up having it every Shabbat. Why am I telling you this? Because even this gefilte fish addict likes to change up Shabbat appetizer every now and then and this salad is a great way to fill that role. Kani, or mock crab, are those orange and white sticks of fish product that are often used in sushi rolls. They don’t have a strong taste at all, just a mild sweetness and a great texture and they pair perfectly with the creamy avocado, lime and other goodies in this salad. It’s also a perfect salad for summer eating-it is light (not heavy on mayonnaise) and refreshing .Serve each portion in halved avocados for a beautiful presentation. Enjoy!
