A very good combination. I used dill, as DH is not a cilantro fan. Parsley probably would have been a good sub too. I think this could work equally well with lemon, or in the form of a relish to top burgers, fish or chicken. Avocado, cucumber and lemon/lime is a classic "marriage" that never goes out of style!

Very different and yummy appetizer. I was surprised how well the cucumber and avocado go together. Made for Best of 2010 Tag game.

What a tasty little treat! I had to sub a sweet onion for the red because that is what I had on hand. DH is gluten intolerant as are the kids, so this recipe is perfect for us. We will definitely have this again. Made and reviewed for the 37th AUS/NZ Recipe Swap.

This recipe was the answer to a long search for something to serve at a cocktail party. It's a great twist on something familiar. It travels well too. Just slice the cucumbers and make the avocado mixture up ahead of time, pack separately and assemble on-site. I like a little chili powder mixed in with the avocado.
