Simple avocado and tomato salad
Description
Simple Avocado and Tomato Salad features sliced ripe tomatoes layered with avocado and onion. A drizzle of lime juice brightens the flavors, while olive oil adds a smooth mouthfeel. Finishing with fresh herbs like cilantro or parsley and a pinch of salt enhances the natural taste of the vegetables. The combination results in a refreshing texture mix of creamy avocado, crisp onions, and juicy tomatoes.
