Avocado, Cucumber and Tomato Salad

Avocados contain heart healthy monosaturated fats.  They are good for the heart because they are high in folic acid and vitamin B6.  They are a good source of vitamin K, which plays a role in blood and bone function.  Adding avocados to salads increases the absorption of cartenoids (an excellent antioxidant) in the blood stream.  They are a good source of fiber and therefore lower cholesterol levels as well and increase your HDL (good cholesterol). To prevent avocados from turning brown, coat them with lemon juice.

Ingredients

• 1 tomato diced
• 1 avocado peeled and diced
• 1/2 of a medium cucumber diced
• 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
• 1/2 lime or lemon juiced
• sea salt and black pepper to taste
• 3 sprigs cilantro chopped finely

Directions

• Mix all ingredients in a bowl and serve
