Scale
  • 1 ripe avocado, peeled and pitted
  • 1/2 tomato
  • 1 Tbsp. finely chopped red onion*

Notes

*See above in the blog post for alternatives to all of the fresh ingredients in this recipe, except for the avocados.

**Regular table salt or fine sea salt work here. You just want something that is going to dissolve into the avocado mixture immediately. The kosher salt listed later in the recipe is more for the presentation (how it looks) and that slight extra salty crunch.
