AVOCADO SALAD INSTRUCTIONS:

For the dressing: In a small mixing bowl whisk together lemon juice, red wine vinegar, extra virgin oil oil, honey, garlic, cilantro, parsley, oregano, and season with salt and pepper to taste.
In a large bowl gently toss together cucumbers, tomatoes, red onion, and avocado with dressing.
Serve shortly after preparing.

Avocado salad Notes:

I like to use a multicolor blend of tomatoes for a more visually appealing salad but all red tomatoes work just fine too.

For a slightly milder flavor red onions can be rinsed under water and drained well to help remove harsh bite.

Lime juice can be substituted.

For a more refreshing salad you can use chilled ingredients and a chilled dressing (don’t chill tomatoes longer than a few hours though, and wait to cut the avocado until ready to serve).
