1-Gathering and Prepping Your Ingredients: First things first, start by washing all your fresh produce under cold water to keep it crisp and clean. Once that’s done, slice the English cucumber into thin rounds and dice the 1 lb Roma tomatoes for that juicy burst. Dice the 2 avocados carefully you want them creamy, not mashed!

2-Gathering and Prepping Your Ingredients: Next, slice the 1/2 medium red onion thinly to add a nice sharp kick, and chop up that 1/4 cup of cilantro for a herby touch. Mixing these together in a large bowl sets the stage for a salad that’s full of color and texture. I love how simple this is it’s like creating a little masterpiece in minutes!

3-Mixing and Serving: Now, place the chopped tomatoes, sliced cucumber, sliced red onion, diced avocado, and chopped cilantro into a large salad bowl. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil or sunflower oil, and add 2 tablespoons of lemon juice from 1 medium lemon. Toss everything gently to combine, keeping those avocado pieces intact for the best texture.

4-Mixing and Serving: Just before serving, sprinkle in 1 teaspoon of sea salt and 1/8 teaspoon of black pepper to bring out the flavors. For a fun twist, try pairing it with another fresh salad idea from my collection. Serve it up right away to enjoy that crunch, or let it chill briefly if you prefer!
