Ingredients You’ll Need

  • Cucumber: Persian cucumbers add the perfect crunch, but use what you have on hand.
  • Tomato: I like cherry, grape, and medley tomatoes, but you can dice Roma tomatoes.
  • Cilantro: Cilantro brightens the salad, but fresh dill and parsley are great substitutes.
  • Dressing: Prepare a simple salad dressing with olive oil and fresh lime juice from half a lime.
  • Garlic: I suggest using one clove, but measure with your heart.
  • Avocado: Add creaminess to the salad with cubed avocado.
  • Spices: Finish the salad with kosher salt and black pepper.

What to do with the Leftovers

  • Can I make the salad ahead of time? Prepare the salad the day before. However, I recommend leaving out the avocado. When you’re ready to serve, fold the avocado pieces into the salad.
  • Refrigerate: Store the leftover avocado cucumber tomato salad in an airtight container for 2-3 days.

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!
