Simple Tomato and Avocado Salad

Stick to the 1/4 c. of red onion. One of the times I made this, I just wanted to use up the rest of the onion...bad idea. 1/4 c. is the perfect amount. Other than that, I love this recipe. I've used it as a salsa for chips, a condiment on wraps, and eaten it straight as a salad. It's awesome and no-cook. It doesn't get much better than that!

This was a very nice salad with great flavor. I served it on a bed of lettuce along with lemon pepper grilled chicken and steamed rice. My wife commented on how delicious it was, and she does not particularly care for tomatoes but adores avocados. A touch of cilantro would make a nice addition to the presentation if you were serving it with a Mexican meal. This is a very versatile salad that could be paired with just about any dish.

This simple little salad is a hit at my house! I love avocados and have been trying to add more of them to our diet. I used a vidalia onion because it is what I had on hand. I added yellow pepper and little hot pepper for fun. Took a whopping five minutes to put together and made a great side for black bean soup. Yum!

Loved it! I may add a little less oil the next time, or maybe i just needed bigger tomatoes, but the taste was great! Thanks for posting!

I mixed things up a bit. I used grape tomatoes instead of medium vine ripened tomatoes. I also added in chopped yellow pepper. This was SO good! The dressing was perfect! Thanks!

Made this to top Chicken burgers with swiss cheese. I grabed a spoonful to do a taste test and it was delish!! I also added fresh cilantro.

Wonderful! I made this in the morning before church so it sat through the service (marinating) until our potluck at noon. It looked lovely (the lemon juice, which I actually drizzled on separately, kept it from discoloring) and tasted very flavorful. I used a combination of red onion and green onion, as well as a crushed garlic clove. Needless to say, there were no leftovers.

This is a recipe that really showcases good quality ingredients so use them if you can! I used grape tomatoes, pink cherry tomatoes, fig balsamic vinegar, good olive oil, Pink Himalayan salt and since I was out of red onions, I used green onions. Divine! I will make this again for sure!!! Made for the February Sun and Spice event. Thanks southern chef! :)

I just LOVE salads like this. So simple and delicious. I used green onion instead of red. I'm looking forward to making it again soon. Thanks for posting.

It was wonderful. Followed recipe to the T. I did try one short cut and it worked out I was out of lemons but had bottled lemon juice on hand so used that and no problem.

Excellent, quick to make salad & very flavorful. I might consider using white balsamic vinegar the next time because I think it would give a more appetizing appearance. Really enjoyed the flavors and using all the fresh ingredients that won't spoil at a picnic or cookout in the summer heat. Thanks for sharing!

Very good! I added a cucumber just because I have so many. The red onion and the tomatoes were also from my garden. it was great!

I made this twice in the past week, once for dinner at home and once for a potluck at a party and everyone thought this was delicious both times. Very refreshing. I made the first time as directed and the 2nd time added just a touch of dried basil and thought both were excellent. Great recipe!!

VERY good! I made this for lunch, but ended up using it on top of my eggs. My boyfriend also used this in for tacos and loved it. I will definitely be making this again

Delicious! I used one medium scallion (green onion) instead of the red onion (since I didn't have one) along with a very large heirloom tomato and both my husband and I thought it was a great side dish. Next time, I will serve it on a bed of lettuce to enjoy some of the dressing.

So easy and yet very tasty. I truly enjoyed this. I would agree with everyone else that it is probably not 4 servings. If you wanted to get 4 servings out of it, you would have very small servings. I ate the whole thing for lunch with a chicken breast. Will make again.
