Celery, radish and avocado salad

4 servings

40 minutes

This refreshing salad with celery, radish, and avocado is a vibrant embodiment of lightness and flavor balance. It combines the crunchiness of celery, the spiciness of radish, and the creamy texture of avocado to create a harmonious dish perfect for a light snack or as an accompaniment to a main course. American cuisine is known for its simplicity and freshness of ingredients, and this salad is a great testament to that. Lemon juice adds a slight tanginess while olives contribute rich flavor to complete the composition. Preparing the salad is a true ritual: vegetables are marinated to absorb spices and juices before being gently mixed to maintain their texture. This dish is suitable for a summer lunch or as a healthy snack that invigorates and refreshes on a hot day.
