Description
A vibrant Mediterranean salad combining creamy avocado, tangy feta, and zesty tomatoes with a lemon-honey dressing. Perfect as a light lunch, appetizer, or summer dish.
Ingredients
2 ripe avocados, diced
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled or cubed
1 small red onion, thinly sliced and soaked
1/4 cup black olives, optional
2 tablespoons extra-virginia olive oil (for dressing)
1 tablespoon lemon juice (or lime juice)
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon honey
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
Instructions
Soak the red onion thinly sliced in cold water for 10 minutes. Drain and pat dry.
Cut avocados in half, remove pits, and dice into large cubes.
Halve the cherry tomatoes and place in a mixing bowl.
Add avocados, feta, olives, and soaked red onion to the bowl with tomatoes.
Gently toss everything together using a large spoon to prevent bruising the avocado.
In a small bowl, whisk olive oil, lemon juice, honey, and oregano together.
Drizzle the dressing over the salad and gently toss until evenly combined.
Notes
Soaking the red onion reduces bitterness.
Black olives are optional but enhance Mediterranean flavor.
Drizzle dressing just before serving to maintain feta’s texture.
