Slice the cherry tomatoes in half and add them to the mixing bowl.
Finely chop half a red onion and add it to the mixture.
Drizzle the freshly squeezed lemon juice and olive oil over the vegetables in the bowl.
Add the chopped fresh cilantro, salt, and freshly ground black pepper to enhance the flavor.
Gently toss all the ingredients together until well combined. Be careful not to mash the avocado.
Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed. Add a bit more salt, pepper, or lemon juice according to your preference.
Serve immediately as a salad, side dish, or with your favorite crackers or toasted bread. Enjoy!
