Avacado Salad

My need to try this salad started with one of those 30 second video recipes on facebook.  I don’t know which site it was that posted it, but it sent me on a google search for something similar.  So, I won’t take credit for this recipe.  It’s one I borrowed from a blog called Natasha’s Kitchen.  The only alterations I made were using less lemon, and less oil.  This was yummy.  I’ll make it again in the summer.  Sort of like turning Guacamole into salad…how can you go wrong? 🙂

Ingredients: 

• 2 Haas Avacados, ripe
• 3 Tomatoes, chopped
• 1/4 of a red tomato diced
• 1 cucumber, peeled, seeded and diced
• 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
• 1 TBSP olive oil
• Juice from 1/2 a large lemon
• Fresh Ground Pepper (to taste)
• Sea Salt (to taste)

Directions: 

1. Chop your avacado, and tomatoes to about the same size.
2. Slice your cucumber down the center long ways and scoop out the seeds with a spoon.  Dice the cucumber a little smaller than the tomatoes and avacado.
3. Mix all your veggies together, stir in the Oil and Lemon Juice, as well as cilantro.
4. Salt, Pepper, Stir, and enjoy 🙂
