Vegan Tomato Salad with Cucumber, Avocado, Cilantro, and Lime

(from jess’s recipe box)

Serves 2 people

Categories: Salad

Ingredients

  • 6 medium tomatoes, diced into bite-sized pieces (about 2 cups diced tomatoes)
  • 2 medium cucumbers, diced into bite-sized pieces (about 1 cup diced cucumber)
  • 1 avocado, diced into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 cup chopped cilantro (use more or less to taste)
  • 1 T + 2 T fresh squeezed lime juice
  • 1 T best quality extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/4 tsp. Spike seasoning (optional, but good)
  • salt to taste (I used Vege-Sal, but sea salt would be great here)

Directions

  1. Peel avocado and cut into 1/2 inch pieces (I use this method for peeling and cutting an avocado.) Put avocado pieces into plastic or glass bowl and toss with 1 T lime juice. Season generously with salt.

  2. Chop tomatoes, cucumbers, and cilantro and add to avocado in bowl. Whisk together 2 T lime juice and 1 T olive oil (with Spike seasoning if using) then stir gently into salad. Serve immediately. This doesn’t keep well, so only make as much as will be eaten right away.
