Ingredients
  

2 medium cucumbers, diced

2 ripe avocados, diced

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1/4 red onion, finely chopped

1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped

Juice of 1 lime

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon sea salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)

1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional for a spicy kick)

Instructions
 

Start by preparing the vegetables. Dice the cucumbers and avocados into bite-sized pieces and place them in a large mixing bowl.

    Cut the cherry tomatoes in half and add them to the bowl along with the chopped red onion and cilantro.

      To prepare the dressing, in a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, olive oil, sea salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and red pepper flakes until well combined.

        Pour the dressing over the salad mixture in the large bowl. Gently toss everything together until the cucumbers and avocados are evenly coated with the dressing.

          Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary – you can add more salt, lime juice, or red pepper flakes according to your preference.

            Let the salad sit for about 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

              Serve chilled or at room temperature as a refreshing side dish or light meal.
