Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 ripe avocados
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes
- 1 medium cucumber
- 0.25 small red onion
- 0.25 cup fresh cilantro
- 1 lime
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Start by preparing the vegetables. Halve and pit the avocados. Use a spoon to scoop the flesh into a large mixing bowl and gently mash it with a fork to your desired consistency.
Rinse the cherry tomatoes and slice them into halves. Add them to the bowl with the avocados.
Peel the cucumber, slice it in half lengthwise, and use a spoon to scoop out the seeds. Chop the cucumber into small cubes and add them to the mixing bowl.
Peel and finely dice the red onion and add it to the bowl.
Chop the fresh cilantro roughly and add it to the salad for a burst of flavor.
Roll the lime on the countertop to release its juices, then slice it in half and squeeze the juice over the salad.
Drizzle the olive oil over the salad and season with salt and black pepper.
Gently toss all the ingredients together until well combined, making sure the avocado coats the other vegetables, giving the salad a creamy texture.
Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary before serving.
