TOMATO, ZUCCHINI AND AVOCADO SALAD



Tomato, Zucchini and Avocado Salad image

Whenever you make a dish with uncooked zucchini, be sure to slice or dice it finely, so that the zucchini can absorb the dressing or seasonings. I like to eat this salsa salad with rice.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     easy, quick, salads and dressings, side dish

Time 25m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 medium zucchini
Salt to taste
5 medium tomatoes, finely chopped
1 or 2 jalapeño or serrano peppers, seeded if desired and finely chopped
1/4 to 1/2 cup chopped cilantro, to taste
1 Haas avocado, ripe but not too soft, cut into tiny dice
3 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon or lime juice
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Boston lettuce or romaine lettuce leaves for serving

Steps:

  • Sprinkle the zucchini with salt, and drain in a colander for 15 minutes. Rinse if the zucchini tastes very salty, and drain on paper towels.
  • Combine the tomatoes, chiles and cilantro in an attractive bowl. Combine the zucchini, avocado and lemon or lime juice and olive oil in another bowl. Taste and add salt if desired. Add to the tomatoes, and toss together gently. Taste and adjust seasonings. Serve on lettuce leaves as a salad, or serve over rice.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe, flavorful tomatoes: Look for tomatoes that are deep red in color and have no blemishes. Avoid tomatoes that are green or have bruises.
  • Use fresh, crisp cucumbers: English or Persian cucumbers are best for this salad, as they have a mild flavor and thin skin. Avoid cucumbers that are yellow or have a thick, waxy skin.
  • Use ripe avocados: Avocados should be firm but slightly yielding to the touch. Avoid avocados that are too hard or too soft.
  • Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs like basil, cilantro, and mint add a lot of flavor to this salad. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but be sure to use less, as they are more concentrated.
  • Make the dressing ahead of time: The dressing for this salad can be made up to 24 hours in advance. This will give the flavors time to meld and develop.
  • Serve the salad immediately: This salad is best served immediately after it is made. The avocado will start to brown if it sits for too long.

Conclusion:

This tomato, cucumber, and avocado salad with lemon vinaigrette is a refreshing and flavorful side dish or light lunch. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With its vibrant colors and delicious flavors, this salad is sure to be a hit at your next gathering.
