Detox-Friendly Cucumber & Avocado Salad

With no cooking required, this salad comes together in the time it takes to slice a cucumber and an avocado.

Cucumber is naturally hydrating and avocado brings healthy fats and fiber, which is why this combination is tagged for detox and cleanse routines — light, whole-food salads like this one are a common staple in that kind of eating pattern. Fresh cilantro and a simple lemon-olive oil dressing keep the flavors clean and simple.

Toss gently right before serving so the avocado holds its shape.

This salad is best eaten the same day it's made, since the avocado will start to soften if it sits too long. Pair it with grilled fish or a scoop of quinoa if you want something more filling.
