Nice salad, but it is not the original recipe for the Texan's Silver Lining Salad. No mayo and you forgot the secret fish sauce.

Very nice salad. The dressing has a nice tartness to it that plays very well with the avocado. I was not able to find bibb so I used tender red leaf lettuce-very pretty colors when put together. I think this dressing will be fantastic with a platter of sliced garden tomatoes and cukes. Thanks for Posting Molly 53!<br/>Di ;-)

What a wonderfully refreshing salad! The dressing has a nice flavor to it which pairs perfectly with the avocado. I used Boston lettuce as I was unable to find bibb. Thanks so much for sharing this wonderful recipe, Molly53!

Not the exact recipe. May be a very nice salad, tho, but not The Texan Silver Lining.
