Avocado, Olive, Caper Salad

I have used regular green leaf lettuce which is easily available. Any greens will do. Select firm, perfectly ripe avocados which can be sliced and garnished with olives and capers. Pine nuts are optional. Both olives and capers are salty and very little salt in used in the dressing.
