Ingredients
Scale
- 2 ripe avocados, sliced
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
- 1 cucumber, diced
- Fresh cilantro or parsley for garnish
- Juice of 1 lime or lemon
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: crumbled feta cheese or chopped nuts
Instructions
- Begin by slicing the ripe avocados carefully, ensuring they remain intact. Prepare the cherry tomatoes, onion, and cucumber as described in the ingredients list.
- In a large bowl, combine the sliced avocados, cherry tomatoes, red onion, and cucumber. Drizzle with freshly squeezed lime or lemon juice and add the olive oil, salt, and pepper. Gently toss all the ingredients to combine.
- Finish by sprinkling chopped cilantro or parsley over the salad. For extra richness, add crumbled feta cheese or chopped nuts if desired. Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 30 minutes for enhanced flavor.
Notes
- To keep the avocado salad fresh, store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
- Adding extra lime juice before storing helps prevent browning of the avocados.
- Consume within 1-2 days for the best taste and texture.
- Can be customized with additional ingredients like grilled corn, black beans, or sliced radishes.
