This salad is so good! I love the combination of avocado, lime, and cilantro. The dressing is also really good. I used a little less oil than the recipe called for, and it was still plenty creamy.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover avocado. I always have a few avocados that are about to go bad, so this is a great way to use them up. The salad is also really easy to make, and it's always a hit with my family.
