AVOCADO AND ONION SALAD
Lovely, simple recipe from www.avocadosalad.com; I haven't tried it yet, but I can just imagine how wonderful it will be next summer with homegrown tomatoes! Mmmmmm.... Also, while the salad says to toss the salad components and dressing, the picture shown was of a beautiful salad constructed of layers. So I'm modifying the instructions to make it as shown. If you're short on time or patience, just gently toss it all together, season with salt & pepper, and dish up. Times are estimates.

Tips:
- Choose ripe avocados: Look for avocados that are dark green or black in color, and slightly soft when gently squeezed. Avoid avocados that are too hard or have blemishes.
- Use red onion for a sharper flavor: Red onions have a stronger flavor than yellow or white onions, which can help to balance out the richness of the avocado.
- Chop the onion finely: Finely chopping the onion will help to prevent it from overpowering the other ingredients in the salad.
- Use fresh cilantro: Fresh cilantro adds a bright, citrusy flavor to the salad. If you don't have fresh cilantro, you can substitute dried cilantro, but it will not have the same flavor.
- Don't overdress the salad: A little bit of dressing goes a long way in this salad. Too much dressing can overwhelm the other ingredients.
- Serve the salad immediately: This salad is best served immediately after it is made. The avocado will start to brown after a few hours, so it is important to eat it fresh.
Conclusion:
This simple avocado and onion salad is a delicious and refreshing side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make, and it can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you like your salad spicy, tangy, or mild, this recipe has you covered. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy salad to make, give this avocado and onion salad a try. You won't be disappointed!
