    How to chop cucumber?

    How to cut the onions?

    I went for strips of onion for this salad but feel free to chip into cubes!

    • Peel onion and section off ¼- ½ of it
    • Slice a small portion off the side to make a nice flat edge
    • Slice thin pieces of onion off then roughly chop the onion into various sizes

    How to cube avocado?

    • Cut avocados in half and remove the pit either with a knife (carefully!) or a spoon
    • Slice through the flesh of the avocado in horizontal and vertical lines to form cubes without slicing through the peel
    • Use a spoon to scoop out the avocado

    How to cut tomatoes?

    • Use a serrated knife to slice the tomatoes into ~8 even slices
    • Cut those slices into cubes

    How to cut tomato

    Do I have to use Roma tomatoes?

    Nope! Cube any tomatoes you have or if using smaller tomatoes like grape or cherry then simply slice them in half!

    Not a fan of cilantro or onions?

    Leave them out! This would still be a tasty cucumber avocado tomato salad!

    How to store leftovers (if you have any!)?

    If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container and refrigerate. Eat within 2-3 days.

    This is truly a super easy recipe that won’t disappoint! It's healthy, flavorful and delicious! Give it a try!

    Notes

    Lisa’s Tips
    * Red onion can be really strong so start with a ¼ cup chopped onion then add more if you want it.
    *Refrigerate and store in an air tight container for 2-3 days. Avocado will start to brown after 2-3 days (even with the added lemon juice).
