Ingredients

• 1 medium Ripe avocado
• 200 grams Cherry tomatoes
• 1 medium Cucumber
• 0.5 small Red onion
• 3 tablespoons Fresh cilantro
• 2 tablespoons Fresh lime juice
• 1 teaspoon Olive oil
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Start by cutting the avocado in half, remove the pit, and carefully scoop out the flesh using a spoon. Dice the avocado into bite-sized pieces and place them in a medium-sized salad bowl.

Step 2

Thoroughly wash the cherry tomatoes, then cut them in half and add them to the bowl with the avocado.

Step 3

Peel the cucumber and slice it in half lengthwise. Use a spoon to scrape out the seeds, then chop the cucumber into small cubes and add them to the bowl.

Step 4

Peel the outer layer of the red onion and finely slice half of it. Add the sliced onion to the salad bowl.

Step 5

Chop the fresh cilantro finely and sprinkle it over the salad ingredients in the bowl.

Step 6

In a small bowl, whisk together the fresh lime juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper until well combined to make the dressing.

Step 7

Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients and gently toss everything together until the salad is well coated in the dressing.

Step 8

Taste the salad and adjust the seasoning with more salt or pepper if necessary.

Step 9

Serve the salad immediately or chill it in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes before serving to let the flavors meld.
