  • Prepare the avocados properly: Cut the avocados in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh. Drizzle lemon or lime juice over the avocado slices to prevent browning.
  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: The fresher the ingredients, the better the salad will taste. Choose ripe tomatoes, crisp cucumbers, and flavorful olives.
  • Don't overdress the salad: A light vinaigrette dressing is all you need to enhance the flavors of the salad without overpowering them.
  • Add some crunch: To add texture to the salad, consider adding some chopped nuts, seeds, or crispy croutons.
