This addicting and easy diced avocado cucumber salad recipe is tossed gently in spicy hot sauce and fresh lime juice and garnished with sliced green onions.

Ingredients

  • 1 avocado, peeled, seeded, and diced
  • 1 cucumber, seeded and diced
  • 1 Tbsp olive oil
  • ½ a lime, juiced
  • 2 tsp hot sauce - use less if you are sensitive to spice
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • pinch black pepper
  • 2 green onions, sliced as optional garnish

Instructions

  • Add all ingredients to a bowl and gently fold in all ingredients except green onions. 
  • Add salt and hot sauce to taste. 
  • Garnish with sliced green onions. Happy eating!

Notes

  • Like it chunky?  Make bigger dices.  I like it a bit smoother so I make smaller dices.  It is easier to gently stir if the dices are larger.
  • Slice the green onion "on the bias".  This means cut it diagonally.  It creates a more surface area and is a different cut than you may be used to.  This salad is raw but cooking vegetables on the bias creates more room for them to brown in a pan instead of steam.
