With the weather starting to warm up, you don’t want to be stuck in the kitchen for too long. The spring and summer are meant to be spent enjoying the warm weather, outside, not cooped up inside. This is why we love recipes that are not only delicious and easy to make, but also use ingredients that are available during the warm season.
Avocados and tomatoes are ingredients that are available year-round, but during the warm seasons not only are they more economical, but they have to travel shorter distances, so they’re the freshest and more delicious. Check out this great recipe for a Cucumber, Tomato and Avocado Salad that you can pair with grilled fish, chicken, and even some carne asada!
