Ingredients
  

1 large cucumber, thinly sliced

1 ripe avocado, diced into bite-sized pieces

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

¼ red onion, finely chopped

¼ cup fresh cilantro, roughly chopped

2 tablespoons fresh lime juice (about 1 lime)

1 tablespoon olive oil

Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Instructions
 

In a spacious mixing bowl, combine the thinly sliced cucumber, diced avocado, halved cherry tomatoes, and finely chopped red onion. Stir the ingredients gently to mix, being careful not to mash the avocado pieces.

    In a separate small bowl, whisk together the fresh lime juice, olive oil, a pinch of salt, and a few cracks of black pepper until well blended.

      Drizzle the dressing over the salad mixture, ensuring to coat all ingredients evenly while maintaining the integrity of the avocado. Use a spatula to gently toss everything together.

        Fold in the chopped cilantro and give the salad another gentle toss to distribute the cilantro throughout.

          Taste the salad and adjust the seasoning if necessary, adding more salt, pepper, or lime juice according to your preference.

            Transfer the salad to a beautiful serving dish or individual bowls. For a refreshing twist, chill in the refrigerator for about 15 minutes before serving, or enjoy immediately for a crisp experience.
