Avocado, Tomato & Sweet Onion Salad  

 

While it's very simple, sometimes simplicity is best as the flavors

marry perfectly.

 

1 lg or 2 med. avocados

juice of 1/2 lemon (about 2 tsp.)

1 pint cherry tomatoes

1/4 med. sized sweet onion (such as Vidalia or Maui)

3 T rice vinegar

1 T olive oil

kosher salt and coarsely ground black pepper to taste

3-4 large lettuce leaves

 

Serves 3-4

Peel avocado and remove pit. Cut avocado into 1 inch chunks and sprinkle

with lemon juice.

 

Wash tomatoes, cut each in half and add to bowl with the avocado. Slice

the onion very thin and add to the bowl. Sprinkle vinegar over the

vegetables, season with salt and pepper (preferbly kosher salt and

coarsely ground pepper, but use what you have). Drizzle oil the mixture

and gently stir until all ingredients are well combined. Serve on a

lettuce leaf, if desired.
