Ingredients

  • 2 ripe avocados, diced
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 medium cucumber, diced
  • 1/4 small red onion, thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro or parsley, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Place the diced avocados in a large mixing bowl.
  2. Add the halved cherry tomatoes, diced cucumber, and thinly sliced red onion.
  3. Sprinkle in the chopped cilantro or parsley.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, add 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese.
  • Add grilled shrimp, chicken, or chickpeas for additional protein.
  • Sliced radishes or a pinch of red pepper flakes provide extra crunch and heat.

  • Store leftovers in an airtight container with plastic wrap pressed against the surface for up to 1 day.
