A fresh and simple salad made with ripe avocados, juicy tomatoes, and sharp onion, dressed with olive oil and lemon or lime juice, perfect as a side or light meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 ripe avocados
  • 2 medium tomatoes (or a handful of cherry tomatoes)
  • 1 small red or white onion
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp fresh lemon or lime juice
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional: chopped cilantro or parsley

Instructions

  1. Wash tomatoes and herbs. Peel and pit the avocados.
  2. Dice the avocados into bite-size pieces and place them in a bowl.
  3. Chop the tomatoes into similar-size pieces and add to the bowl.
  4. Thinly slice the onion and add to the mix. If the onion is strong, soak slices in cold water for 5 minutes first.
  5. Drizzle olive oil and lemon or lime juice over the salad. Add salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Gently toss everything to combine, being careful not to mash the avocado. Serve right away or chill for 10–15 minutes to let flavors meld.
  7. Garnish with chopped cilantro or parsley if you like, then serve as a side or light main.

Notes

Dress the salad just before serving to prevent the avocado from browning. For best texture, consume within a day.
