This salad is all about freshness and balance, built from crisp vegetables and gentle seasoning. Cool lettuce forms the base, while juicy tomatoes and creamy avocado add contrast and texture. Red onion brings just enough sharpness to wake everything up. A light touch of spices ties the flavors together without overpowering them. It’s the kind of salad that feels easy, clean, and satisfying. Perfect as a side or a simple meal on its own.
