This cool, beautiful-looking salad is a fun side to Mexican food, and it's much healthier than refried beans covered in cheese. You only need 11 minutes to make it and you also don't have to cook anything. That makes the prep and cleanup process super easy. The simple yet flavorful dressing is made by shaking some apple-cider vinegar, olive oil, salt, and pepper together in a jar. Toss with fresh cherry tomatoes, sliced avocado, and chopped cucumbers, and your salad is ready to go. Feel free to add red onions, crumbled cheese, or chopped herbs for additional crunch and color; just keep in mind that this will affect the recipe's nutritional value.
