- 1 medium cucumber, chopped
- 1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Prepare your ingredients: dice the avocados, halve the cherry tomatoes, chop the cucumber, and thinly slice the red onion.
- Place the diced avocado, tomatoes, cucumber, and red onion into a medium mixing bowl.
- In a small separate bowl, whisk together the fresh lime juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper to create the zesty lime avocado salad dressing.
- Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients.
- Gently toss everything together until the vegetables are lightly coated. Do not overmix, or the avocado will become mushy.

- If you are meal prepping, store the dressing separately and combine just before serving to keep the vegetables crisp.
