Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large avocados
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes
- 1 medium cucumber
- 0.25 medium red onion
- 2 tablespoons cilantro (or parsley)
- 1 whole lime
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
Instructions
Cut the avocados in half, remove the pits, and dice the flesh into bite-sized cubes. Scoop out the cubes into a large mixing bowl.
Slice the cherry tomatoes in half and add them to the bowl with the avocados.
Peel the cucumber, if desired, and dice it into small chunks. Add it to the mixing bowl.
Finely dice the red onion and add it to the bowl. If you prefer a milder flavor, soak the diced onion in cold water for 5 minutes, then drain before adding.
Chop the cilantro or parsley and sprinkle it over the ingredients in the bowl.
Juice the lime and pour the juice over the salad ingredients.
Drizzle the olive oil over the salad and season with salt and black pepper.
Gently toss the salad to combine all the ingredients without mashing the avocados.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Serve immediately and enjoy!
