This is one of the most popular recipes on my site. Here are some of the reason people love making this dish:

Tips for making this recipe:

• Wondering how to tell if an avocado is ripe? Just hold it in your palm and squeeze gently. Ready to eat avocados will be firm but yield slightly to gentle pressure. Don’t squeeze it with your fingers though – that can cause bruises.
• Because this is such a simple salad, presentation means a lot. So try and cut all your ingredients to be roughly the same size.
• Soak the red onion slice in a little water, for a couple of minutes, before mincing. This will remove some of the raw onion taste.
• Avocado does not refrigerate well. So if you are not eating it right away, wait to add the avocado until just before serving.
