Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams Cherry tomatoes
- 1 medium Cucumber
- 1 large Avocado
- 0.25 small Red onion
- 10 leaves Fresh basil leaves
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
Instructions
Start by washing the cherry tomatoes and cucumber thoroughly under cool running water and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Slice the cherry tomatoes in half and place them in a large salad bowl.
Peel the cucumber, then slice it in half lengthwise. Use a spoon to scoop out the seeds for a crisper texture. Slice the cucumber into half-moons and add them to the salad bowl with the tomatoes.
Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh out with a spoon. Dice the avocado into bite-sized pieces and gently toss them into the salad bowl.
Finely slice the quarter of a small red onion and add it to the salad bowl.
Roughly chop or tear the fresh basil leaves and sprinkle them over the salad.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper until emulsified.
Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients and toss gently to combine, ensuring that everything is coated evenly.
Let the salad sit for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Serve immediately and enjoy!
