Ingredients
- 2 whole Avocados
- 1.5 cups Cherry tomatoes
- 0.5 medium Red onion
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 2 tablespoons Extra-virgin olive oil
- 1.5 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Cut the avocados in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh out with a spoon. Dice the avocados into bite-sized pieces.
Step 2
Slice the cherry tomatoes in half. If you are using larger tomatoes, chop them into similar-sized pieces as the avocado.
Step 3
Thinly slice the red onion into half-moon-shaped slivers.
Step 4
Chop the fresh parsley finely for garnish.
Step 5
In a small bowl, whisk together the extra-virgin olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.
Step 6
In a large salad bowl, combine the diced avocado, sliced cherry tomatoes, red onion, and parsley. Toss gently to mix, being careful not to mash the avocado.
Step 7
Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss gently again to coat the ingredients evenly.
Step 8
Serve immediately for best freshness or chill for 10–15 minutes before serving to let the flavors meld.
