he serves with vinaigrette. I like that salad, too, and it's good with Caesar salad dressing.

Interesting that he puts tarragon on it. Most people don't grow tarragon.

the author of "6 Recipes for Bernie Sanders’s Favorite Foods" suggested dishes he might like based on some of his favorite foods and ingredients.

The same story from The Washington Post highlighted Sanders’s love for fresh produce, particularly tomatoes and avocados. Both ingredients are delicious and healthy in their own right, but they’re even better together. Try the combo with this easy salad from Foodie Crush. It’s also just as delicious with different herbs, so feel free to experiment.

There's a link to Heidi's (she doesn't give a last name) recipe on her Foodie Crush website. She adapted the recipe from a salad served at her favorite Cuban restaurant.

Inspired by an avocado and onion salad my husband and I came to crave from a favorite Cuban restaurant (and that I always asked for tomatoes to be added to), I’ve embellished their inspiration and made it my own with creamy avocados, onion, homegrown tomatoes and lick-loving licoricey-tarragon—just ’cause I’m an herb-loving kind of girl.
