Avocado and Tomato Salad - Easy and Delicious

This is a salad you can make quickly and nearly everyone I know loves it. I made a GIANT bowl on Sunday for about 20 people and it was gone in a few minutes.  Lime juice is good but lemon is nice as well.  You can add a chili or not - if you don't have grape or cherry tomatoes, use regular vine ripe tomatoes.  If you want a bit of grain, then some bulghur wheat (soaked) would be a nice addition.  Sumac, if you have some, would make it taste a bit different and more middle eastern.  Have fun with it.








If you enjoy fresh foods, you will not be disappointed.  It is pretty, delicious, fresh and appeals to all ages

Ingredients:
4 cups avocados, diced medium
2 cups grape tomatoes or 2 cups cherry tomatoes
2 cups cucumbers, peeled and diced medium
1 cup red onion, diced small
4 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
2 teaspoons fresh garlic, minced
2 tablespoons lime juice
1/4 cup olive oil
salt
fresh black pepper
Lettuce (if you want) I think a jalapeño might be nice

Method:
Toss all ingredients in a bowl and top on a bed of lettuce (if desired)
Makes 8 servings
