For a fresh and authentic avocado dish that’s rooted in Latin American cuisine but is not guacamole, try this avocado salad. It combines creamy chunks of avocado, bell pepper and onion, with a simple lime dressing. Enjoy it as a side dish or try it spooned onto tacos, draped over grilled fish, or scooped up with tortilla chips.
