Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium ripe avocados
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes
- 1 medium cucumber
- 0.25 medium red onion
- 0.25 cup fresh cilantro
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 cup feta cheese (optional, omit for dairy-free)
Instructions
Begin by slicing the avocados in half, removing the pit, and scooping the flesh into a large mixing bowl. Chop the avocado into bite-sized pieces.
Halve the cherry tomatoes and add them to the bowl with the avocados.
Peel and dice the cucumber into small chunks and add to the mixing bowl.
Finely dice the red onion and add it to the bowl.
Chop the fresh cilantro leaves and add them to the mixture.
In a small bowl, whisk together lime juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients and gently toss to combine, ensuring everything is coated with the mix.
If desired, crumble feta cheese over the top of the salad for added flavor and creaminess.
Serve the salad immediately, or cover and refrigerate for up to 3 hours to allow the flavors to meld together.
