Avocado Tomato Salad

This delicious salad started out life as a salsa recipe from epicurious.com and has morphed into one of our favourite salads. We always have it with Grilled Cumin Chicken.

Ingredients

  • 2 large tomatoes seeded and chopped in large chunks
  • 2 large Avocados cut in large chunks
  • 1 tablespoon Red onion cut in very fine strips
  • 1/2 tablespoon Pickled jalapeno pepper finely chopped
  • Juice of 1 lime (approx. 1 - 2T)
  • 1 teaspoon Salt

Preparation

The avocadoes and tomatoes should be approximately the same size. Combine all ingredients and serve immediately. I often prepare the entire dish ahead of time without the avocados and then add them at the last minute. Be sure to seed the tomatoes or there will be too much juice. Adjust lime juice so there's not too much liquid.

Avocado Tomato Salad Reviews

The salad was very tasty and flavorful, unfortunately, it is very acidic and gave my DH terrible heartburn. I would make this again as a "salsa" rather than a side dish.

Easy to prepare. Great taste. Wonderful side dish to compliment Mexican or many other dishes.

I just made this salad and loved it. My version also included diced poblano pepper, green onions, fresh queso, cilantro, lime zest, and a sprinkling of chili powder and cumin. I'm posting a picture of my first of many avocado tomato salads. Thanks for the recipe.

Great for hot, summer days.

LOVED it! We added fresh grilled corn and substituted a grilled orange bell pepper for the jalapeno and it was AWESOME!

We also had the cumin chicken as recommended and it was a great compliment... the salad stole the show though!

As simple as it gets! Great, fresh recipe for spring and summer.

This is very good. I cut back on the salt just a little and added sliced green onions with tops in place of the red onion. Next time, I will add more jalapeno for a little more spice. 5 stars!!

We LOVE this salad. You can add a little more jalapeno if you like spice. We have also found it's good to let it sit for a while so the flavors can blend.

Great, simple salad. I used leftover to make guacamole.

We are avid fans of Mexican or Southwestern foods. I served this with "Pan Burritos and Meat Patties", both of which are in the B.O. database. Excellent.

Excellent, fresh salad! Colorful and spicy with the jalapenos. Hit the spot. Thanks for posting, Susan.
