English Cucumber and Avocado Salad

During spring and summer I always salads for pretty much every dinner. As spring just begins showing off its colors and its beautiful flowers fresher ingredients start appearing at grocery stores.

This spring/summer salad goes great with pretty much anything, from fish, to poultry, to any type of meats. You can make it ahead of time and keep it in the fridge until is ready to serve. The longer it rests the better it tastes.

What you’ll need:

Medium salad or mixing bowl
Measuring cups and spoons
Two large spoons
Knife and cutting board
