Step-by-Step Instructions
- Place large eggs in a medium pot and cover them with cold water, ensuring there's about an inch of water above the eggs. Heat over medium-high until it reaches a gentle boil. Once boiling, cover the pot, remove it from heat, and let it sit undisturbed for 10-12 minutes.
- While the eggs are cooking, halve the ripe avocados and scoop them into a mixing bowl. Mash them lightly with a fork, leaving some chunks for texture. Add the finely chopped red onion, halved cherry tomatoes, and chopped cilantro to the bowl.
- Drizzle with freshly squeezed lime juice and olive oil, then mix gently to combine and enhance the flavors.
- After the eggs are done cooking, carefully transfer them to a bowl filled with ice water. Let them cool for about 5 minutes.
- Peel the cooled eggs under running water to help remove the shells more easily. Once peeled, chop the eggs into bite-sized pieces.
- Gently fold the chopped eggs into the avocado mixture in your bowl, being careful not to mash the avocado too much.
- Season the salad with salt and pepper to taste, and if you like a bit of heat, sprinkle in some red pepper flakes.
- Serve the salad cold in a bowl, on toasted bread, or wrapped in lettuce for a refreshing meal.

Notes
Use ripe avocados and fresh ingredients for best flavor. Store the salad in an airtight container for up to 1-2 days in the fridge.
