   --- Preparation ---

2. 2

   Quarter cherry tomatoes, thinly slice cucumbers, bell peppers and red onion, shred carrots, and chop cilantro in a large bowl until vibrant colors and crunches pop.

3. 3

   In a small bowl, whisk fresh lime juice, extra virgin olive oil, honey, minced garlic, salt and black pepper until smooth and slightly thickened, about 30 seconds.

4. 4

   Pour dressing over veggies, then gently toss with tongs or a spatula until everything’s evenly coated with a glossy sheen.

5. 5

   Gently fold in diced avocado last to avoid mashing, stirring just enough to distribute creamy chunks without losing that buttery texture.

6. 6

   Taste and adjust seasoning with extra salt, pepper or lime juice, then transfer to a serving bowl and enjoy immediately for maximum freshness.
