Ingredients

• 3 cups Mixed Fresh Herbs (parsley, cilantro, dill, basil, mint)
• 1 cup Baby Arugula
• 1 cup Cherry Tomatoes
• 1 medium Cucumber
• 1 large Avocado
• 0.25 small Red Onion
• 2 tablespoons Lemon Juice
• 3 tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black Pepper

Directions

Step 1

Wash and dry the fresh herbs thoroughly. Remove any tough stems and roughly chop them.

Step 2

In a large salad bowl, combine the mixed fresh herbs and baby arugula.

Step 3

Slice the cherry tomatoes in half and add them to the salad bowl.

Step 4

Peel and slice the cucumber thinly, ideally in half-moon shapes, and add it to the bowl.

Step 5

Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh with a spoon. Slice the avocado into thin slices and gently mix it into the salad.

Step 6

Thinly slice the red onion and add to the salad. If preferred, soak the onion slices in cold water for a few minutes to reduce pungency, then drain before adding.

Step 7

In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, extra virgin olive oil, salt, and black pepper to make the dressing.

Step 8

Pour the dressing over the salad and toss gently to ensure all ingredients are evenly coated.

Step 9

Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve immediately.
