  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1⁄4 teaspoon salt
  • 1⁄4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1⁄4 cup red onion, finely chopped
  • 1⁄4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 1⁄2 teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions

  1. Rinse the cucumber under cool water and pat dry. Cut off ends and peel if desired.
  2. Slice cucumber into thin rounds and set aside in a large mixing bowl.
  3. Slice avocados in half, remove pits, and scoop flesh into the same bowl.
  4. Gently mash avocado into cucumber slices according to preference.
  5. Add olive oil and lemon juice to the bowl.
  6. Sprinkle salt and black pepper, mixing lightly to combine.
  7. Add red onion and cilantro to the mixture, stirring gently.
  8. Sprinkle garlic powder and mix until well distributed.
  9. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to an hour before serving.

Notes

  • For added crunch, leave the cucumber skin on.
  • Use a sharp knife to ensure clean avocado slices for easy pit removal.
  • For extra creaminess, mash the avocado more thoroughly.
  • Red onion can be soaked in cold water for 10 minutes to reduce sharpness.
  • This salad is best served fresh, but can be stored for up to an hour to allow flavors to meld.
