Instructions
- Prepare the vegetables: Chop the cucumbers, halve the cherry tomatoes, dice the avocados, thinly slice the red onion, and chop the fresh parsley. Place all prepared vegetables into a large mixing bowl.
- Prepare the vinaigrette: In a small bowl or jar, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and pepper until well emulsified.
- Dress the salad: Pour about three-quarters of the vinaigrette over the vegetables in the large bowl. Gently toss everything together until the vegetables are lightly coated.
- Incorporate avocado carefully: Add the diced avocado to the salad mixture. Toss one or two more times very gently to ensure the avocado pieces remain mostly intact.
- Adjust seasoning and serve: Taste the salad and add the remaining dressing, or additional salt and pepper, if necessary. Serve immediately for the best texture.
Notes
For best results, prepare the dressing separately and only dress the salad immediately before serving to prevent the cucumber and avocado from becoming soggy.
