Ingredients
  

2 medium cucumbers, diced

2 ripe avocados, diced

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1/4 red onion, thinly sliced

1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped

Juice of 2 limes

3 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon honey (optional)

Salt and pepper, to taste

1/4 teaspoon chili flakes (optional)

Instructions
 

Prep the Veggies: Start by washing the cucumbers and tomatoes thoroughly. Dice the cucumbers and avocados into bite-sized pieces. Halve the cherry tomatoes and thinly slice the red onion.

    Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, gently combine the diced cucumbers, avocados, cherry tomatoes, and red onion. Be careful not to mash the avocados; you want them to stay intact for texture.

      Make the Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, olive oil, honey (if using), salt, pepper, and chili flakes. Adjust the seasoning to your taste.

        Dress the Salad: Pour the dressing over the salad mixture and toss gently until everything is coated in the dressing. Be cautious not to break apart the avocado.

          Add Fresh Herbs: Sprinkle the chopped cilantro over the top and give it one last gentle toss to mix everything evenly.

            Serve Fresh: For the best flavor, let the salad sit for about 10 minutes for the flavors to meld, then serve immediately. Enjoy this fresh, vibrant salad with your favorite grilled protein or as a light meal on its own!
