For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a finely minced jalapeño pepper.
If you don't have zesty Italian dressing, you can substitute with a mixture of regular Italian dressing, a splash of red wine vinegar, and a pinch of garlic powder.
To prevent the avocado from browning, toss it with a little lime juice before adding it to the salsa.

    I made this for a party and it was a huge hit. I added a little bit of jalapeño to give it some extra heat.

    I let it sit overnight like the recipe suggested, and the flavors were incredible the next day!
