Instructions

Step 1

Stir together the ingredients for the salad dressing in a bowl or measuring cup and set aside until ready to use.

Step 2

2. Add all of the ingredients for the avocado salad to a large mixing bowl (diced avocado, seeded and chopped cucumber, chopped cherry tomatoes, sliced red onion, and chopped green onions). Pour in all of the salad dressing and gently toss everything together until everything is coated with dressing.

Step 3

3. Taste the salad for flavor and add more salt or lime juice to taste.

Step 4

4. Serve immediately in a large salad bowl or store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours for best results.

Step 5

Notes: * or extra virgin olive oil ** you can also use apple cider vinegar or red wine vinegar

Step 6

Salad is freshest when eaten within the first 12 hours, so I don't recommend this as a recipe one would make in advance.
