I'm not a fan of cilantro, so I omitted it from the recipe. The salad was still very flavorful.

I found this salad to be a bit bland. I added some chopped red onion and a squeeze of lemon juice and it was much better.

This salad is a bit too spicy for my taste. Next time I'll use half a jalapeño instead of a whole one.

I'm allergic to avocado, so I used cucumber instead. It was still a great salad, but I missed the creaminess of the avocado.

I substituted feta cheese for the goat cheese and it was still delicious.

This salad is a great way to use up green tomatoes from your garden. I had a bumper crop this year and I'm always looking for new ways to use them.

I'm not a huge fan of spicy food, but I found this salad to be perfectly balanced. The jalapeño added just the right amount of heat without being overpowering.

This salad is a refreshing and flavorful twist on the classic tomato salad. The avocado adds a creamy richness that balances out the acidity of the tomatoes and the spice of the jalapeño. I especially enjoyed the addition of the cilantro and lime jui
