Instructions:

- Add the cubed tofu to the salad bowl with the avocado and tomatoes.
- Sprinkle a dash of salt evenly over the salad ingredients.
- Drizzle 1 tablespoon of vinegar over the salad. You can use your preferred type of vinegar such as balsamic, apple cider, or red wine vinegar.
- Gently toss all the ingredients together until they’re evenly mixed. Be careful not to mash the avocado pieces.

Tips:
- Choose ripe avocados and tomatoes for the best flavor and texture.
- Press the tofu before using to remove excess moisture, which helps it absorb the dressing better.
- Feel free to add other ingredients like cucumbers, red onions, or fresh herbs to customize the salad to your taste.
- Use a high-quality vinegar or try different types (like balsamic or apple cider vinegar) for a unique twist.
- Season the salad just before serving to prevent the vegetables from releasing too much moisture.
