Avocado and Smoked Turkey Salad

 
  Ingredients
    Dressing:
1/4 cup Olive Oil
3 tablespoons Balsamic Vinegar
1 tablespoon Marmalade
1 clove Garlic, finely chopped
1/2 teaspoon Curry Powder
1/4 teaspoon Salt
1/4 teaspoon Ground Black Pepper

Salad:
2 loaves French Bread
2 tablespoons Olive Oil
2 tablespoons Balsamic Vinegar
8 cups Mixed Greens
1 cup (1/2 inch) cubed Smoked Deli Turkey
1 cup (1/2 inch) cubed Papaya
1 cup Red or Green Grapes, halved if large
1 medium Red Apple, cored and cubed
1 ripe Avocado, seeded, peeled, and cut into crescents

  Preparation  
  Dressing:
In a small bowl, whisk together dressing ingredients until blended. Set aside.

Salad:
Cut one inch off the top of each loaf of bread. Using serrated knife, cut around inner edge of crust to remove the inside of the bread. Remove by tearing out all of the interior of the loaf. A 1/2 inch shell should remain.

In a small bowl, mix together oil and vinegar. Brush on inside of each loaf.

Bake in preheated oven at 375 degrees F for 5 minutes. Remove from oven and cool.

In large bowl, combine greens, turkey, papaya, grapes, and apple. Whisk together dressing and pour over salad. Toss to coat. Spoon into breadbaskets.

Top with avocado crescents.

Cut each breadbasket into four pieces and serve.
