Method

Prepare the Salad Base

  1. 1

    Wash and Chop Vegetables

    Wash the romaine lettuce thoroughly under cold water, then chop it into bite-sized pieces. Place in a large salad bowl.

  2. 2

    Prepare Cherry Tomatoes

    Cut the cherry tomatoes in half and add them to the bowl with the chopped lettuce.

  3. 3

    Slice Cucumber

    Peel the cucumber (if desired), then slice it into thin rounds. Add the slices to the salad bowl.

  4. 4

    Chop Red Onion

    Peel the red onion and slice it thinly. Add to the salad bowl, and toss all ingredients gently.

Make the Avocado Dressing

  1. 5

    Prepare Avocados

    Cut the ripe avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a blender or food processor.

  2. 6

    Add Ingredients

    Add lime juice, olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper to the blender with the avocado.

  3. 7

    Blend Dressing

    Blend until smooth and creamy. If the dressing is too thick, add a little water to reach the desired consistency.

Assemble and Serve

    Combine Salad and Dressing

    Pour the avocado dressing over the salad base and toss gently to coat all the ingredients evenly.
