Ingredients
Scale
- 2 ripe avocados, diced
- 2 tomatoes, diced
- 1 cucumber, diced
- 1/4 red onion, thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
- Juice of 1 lime
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt to taste
- Pepper to taste
Instructions
- Dice the avocado, tomato, and cucumber into similar-sized pieces for even bites.
- Thinly slice the red onion so it layers lightly rather than overpowering the salad.
- Whisk lime juice with olive oil, salt, and pepper until the dressing is smooth.
- Toss the vegetables gently with the dressing to coat without mashing the avocado.
- Finish by folding in chopped cilantro for aromatic lift.
Notes
If you prefer a brighter acid, substitute the lime with lemon juice in equal amount. Use Persian cucumbers for thinner skins or English cucumber for fewer seeds. Swap cilantro for flat-leaf parsley if needed.
