Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. Wash two medium-sized English cucumbers under cool running water and pat them dry. Thinly slice cucumbers into rounds about 1/8-inch thick.
  2. Slice a ripe avocado in half, remove the pit, scoop out the flesh, and cut into 1-inch cubes. Drizzle with lime juice to prevent browning.
  3. Rinse half a bunch of green onions, trim root ends, and finely chop the green parts. Set aside in a mixing bowl.
  4. Combine sliced cucumbers, cubed avocados, and green onions in the mixing bowl.
  5. Squeeze the juice from one medium lime and add two tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil over the salad mixture.
  6. Sprinkle sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper over the salad and mix gently to combine.
  7. Toss the ingredients together gently, being careful not to mash the avocado pieces.
  8. Serve immediately for the best flavor and freshness, garnishing with extra chopped green onions or lime wedges if desired.
