Tomato, cucumber and avocado salad





If a quarter of those blossoms turn into cucumbers, there will be many days of cucumber salads ahead, once I hack my way through the vines. Tried another new recipe to try to not let them get away from me:

Tomato, cucumber and avocado salad

Ingredients
2 cups chopped tomatoes
1 cucumber, seeded and chopped
1 avocado, peeled, pitted and chopped
3 tablespoons feta or blue cheese crumbles
2 tablespoons minced red onion
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar

Method
Combine tomatoes, cucumber, avocado, cheese, red onion and parsley in a bowl. Combine oil and vinegar. Salt and pepper to taste and add dressing to ingredients in bowl, tossing to coat. Serve immediately, or if not, don’t peel and add avocado until the last minute to avoid discoloration.

Rating: Nice, colorful, good use of cucumber avalanche. Dave’s take: It would be a perfect salad to go along with steak.
