Avocado Salad

Avocado Salad made with an abundance of rich and creamy avocados, vibrant tomatoes, crisp cucumbers, bright red onions and a fresh herb dressing.

This simple ingredient recipe is perfect as is but is also easy to tweak to your liking or in my case, to what I have available in my veggie drawer. The addition of a chopped jalapeño for those who like the heat and extra crunch. Lime juice and cilantro are the must-haves and don’t scrimp on them either. Yummy!
