Ingredients

• 1 large avocado
• 1 medium cucumber
• 1/4 cup thinly sliced red onion
• 2 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro
• 2 tbsp lime juice
• 1 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
• 1/4 tsp sea salt
• pinch black pepper

Instructions

1. Step 1: Cut avocado in half, remove pit, and scoop flesh into a medium bowl. Add 2 tbsp lime juice and mash lightly with a fork until mostly smooth but with some chunks remaining.
2. Step 2: Peel cucumber, slice thinly, then cut into 1/4-inch half-moons. Add to the avocado bowl along with 1/4 cup sliced red onion.
3. Step 3: Drizzle with 1 tbsp olive oil and 1/4 tsp sea salt, then toss gently until evenly coated. Stir in 2 tbsp chopped cilantro and a pinch of black pepper.
4. Step 4: Taste and adjust seasoning: add more lime juice (1/2 tbsp) if too bland or more salt (a pinch) if needed, ensuring flavors are bright and balanced.
