Ingredients

  • 6 Persian cucumbers, halved and smashed
  • 2 ripe avocados, cut into large chunks
  • 2 scallions, thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
  • 3 tablespoons fresh chopped cilantro
  • 1 jalapeño, seeded and finely diced (or sub ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes)
  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt, plus more to taste

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Slice the cucumbers open lengthwise, then place cucumbers flesh side down and smash the cucumber halves with the flat side of a large knife (similar to how you would smash garlic cloves!); the cucumber will split open. Cut at a 45 degree angle into 1-inch pieces and transfer to a large bowl, then add in avocado chunks, scallions, lime juice, cilantro, jalapeño, and salt. Gently toss with a large spoon to combine. Taste and add more salt, if necessary. Cover and place in the fridge until ready to serve.
