Ingredients
- 300 grams Cherry tomatoes
- 1 medium Cucumber
- 1 large Avocado
- 0.25 small Red onion
- 10 leaves Fresh basil leaves
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Start by washing the cherry tomatoes and cucumber thoroughly under cool running water and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Step 2
Slice the cherry tomatoes in half and place them in a large salad bowl.
Step 3
Peel the cucumber, then slice it in half lengthwise. Use a spoon to scoop out the seeds for a crisper texture. Slice the cucumber into half-moons and add them to the salad bowl with the tomatoes.
Step 4
Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh out with a spoon. Dice the avocado into bite-sized pieces and gently toss them into the salad bowl.
Step 5
Finely slice the quarter of a small red onion and add it to the salad bowl.
Step 6
Roughly chop or tear the fresh basil leaves and sprinkle them over the salad.
Step 7
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper until emulsified.
Step 8
Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients and toss gently to combine, ensuring that everything is coated evenly.
Step 9
Let the salad sit for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Serve immediately and enjoy!
