Make it your own!

• Add a kick of spice by incorporating some diced jalapeños or a pinch of red pepper flakes.

• For extra crunch, toss in some shredded carrots or sliced radishes into the salad mixture.

• If you prefer a creamier texture, mash some of the avocado and mix it with Greek yogurt before adding it to the salad.

• Add feta or goat cheese for added tanginess.
