Start by cutting the avocados in half lengthwise. Remove the pit, scoop the flesh into a large mixing bowl, and gently mash it with a fork, leaving some chunks for texture.
Rinse and pat dry the cherry tomatoes. Cut them into halves and add them to the bowl with the avocados.
Peel and finely dice half of a red onion and add it to the avocado mixture.
Chop the fresh cilantro finely and add to the mixture.
In a small bowl, mix the fresh lime juice and olive oil together. Pour this dressing over the avocado mixture.
Season the salad with salt and black pepper. Mix all ingredients gently to combine.
Remove the seeds from the jalapeño pepper (optional, for less heat) and finely chop it. Add to the salad for an optional spicy kick.
In a large serving bowl, layer the mixed greens and top with the guacamole salad mixture.
Serve immediately, garnished with additional cilantro leaves if desired.
