I'm not a fan of cilantro. Can I use a different herb instead?

This salad looks too complicated to make. I'm going to try a simpler recipe.

I'm allergic to avocados, so I'll have to find a substitute.

This salad is a great make-ahead dish. You can make the vinaigrette and chop the vegetables ahead of time, and then just assemble the salad when you're ready to serve.

I love the addition of toasted cumin to the vinaigrette. It gives the salad a really nice smoky flavor.

I'm not usually a fan of avocado, but I really enjoyed this salad. The lime vinaigrette really brightens up the flavor of the avocado.
