Avocado Salad

• portions: 4 servings
• temps actif: 15 minutes
• temps total: 15 minutes

Ingrédients

½ to 1 jalapeño pepper (diced*)

⅓ cup diced red onion

¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro

2 firm-ripe avocados (pitted and cut into ½-inch pieces)

½ English cucumber (cut into ½-inch pieces)

¾ cup cherry tomatoes (halved)

Flaky sea salt (optional)

3 tablespoons fresh lime juice

2 tablespoons avocado oil

2½ teaspoons honey

1 garlic clove (grated)

1 teaspoon sea salt

¼ teaspoon ground cumin

Freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

Make the dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, avocado oil, honey, garlic, salt, cumin, and several grinds of pepper.

Set aside a little of the jalapeño, red onion, and cilantro for garnish.

Add the avocado to a medium bowl. Evenly arrange the cucumber, tomatoes, and remaining jalapeño, red onion, and cilantro on top. Drizzle with most of the dressing and gently stir. Be careful not to overmix. With too much stirring, the avocado will coat the other ingredients (think guacamole).

Top the salad with the reserved jalapeño, red onion, and cilantro and a little more of the dressing. Season to taste, adding more dressing or pinches of flaky sea salt as desired.

Serve immediately.
