Cuban Avacado Pineapple Salad
Description
😋This Cuban-inspired salad is creamy, tangy, and sweet – I know you’ll love it!
Serve it with a lean protein (grilled fish or chicken would be delicious) or as a healthy snack.
🧅FUN TIP: Soaking the onion can help get rid of the “bite!”
Ingredients
Makes:
4 big/8 small servings
½ small red onion, thinly sliced and separated
1 Tbsp baking soda (optional)
Ice water (about 1 cup/240 ml)
2 ripe avocados
1 medium fresh pineapple
3 Tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
Juice of 1 lime
½ tsp sea salt
Freshly ground pepper to taste (optional)
Instructions
Soak onion in a small bowl of ice water and optional baking soda for 15 minutes.
While the onion is soaking, cut the avocados in half, and then cut each half into slices or chunks. Peel the pineapple, cut into quarters lengthwise to remove the core, and then cut each quarter into slices.
Whisk oil and lime juice in a small bowl.
Drain the onion & rinse it if you used the baking soda. Pat the slices dry. Toss all of the ingredients (onion, avocados, pineapple, dressing, salt & pepper) in a large bowl and arrange on a serving plate.
🍍Serve and enjoy!
