Step‑by‑Step Instructions
- Begin by washing and peeling the cucumbers if desired, then slice them into bite-sized pieces. Next, cut the ripe avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Dice the avocado into chunks, being careful not to mash it, as the Cucumber Avocado Salad should maintain a lovely texture. Combine the diced cucumbers and avocados in a large mixing bowl, making sure the colors contrast beautifully.
- In a small mason jar or bowl, add the fresh lime juice, olive oil, and a pinch of salt. Secure the lid on the jar, or whisk vigorously if using a bowl, until the mixture is well combined and emulsified.
- Gently pour the lime dressing over the salad ingredients in the mixing bowl. With clean hands or a large serving spoon, gently toss the cucumbers and avocados together to coat them evenly without crushing the avocado. Once thoroughly mixed, the salad is ready to serve.

Notes
Dress the salad just before serving to prevent the avocado from browning. For added crunch, consider adding sliced radishes or bell peppers.
