WHAT YOU NEED TO MAKE THIS RECIPE

  • Persian Cucumber: Persian cucumbers add the perfect crunch, but use what you have on hand.
  • Tomato: Use petite tomatoes like cherry, grape, or medley.
  • Cilantro: Cilantro brightens the salad.
  • Olive Oil + Lime: Flavor the dressing with olive oil and lime.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

I don’t like cilantro; can I use something else?

Sure, fresh dill is a great substitute. If you go this route, I suggest using lemon juice in place of lime to compliment the flavor; parsley is another tasty alternative to freshen up our cucumber avocado and tomato salad.

Can I make the salad ahead of time?

Sure, make it the day before, but I suggest leaving the avocado out of it. When you’re ready to serve, cut your avocado and fold the pieces into the rest of your salad.

I made this salad for dinner last night and it was a hit! The fresh herbs and juicy tomato paired perfectly with the creamy avocado and crisp cucumber. The addition of olive oil and lime gave it a delicious zing that took it to the next level. I loved having it as a light meal, but it would also make a fantastic side dish for any gathering. Thank you for sharing this wonderful recipe!
