Tips:

- Choose ripe but firm avocados to ensure the best texture for your salad.

- Thinly slice the radishes and cucumber to balance the texture and flavor with the creamy avocado.

- For a more intense garlic flavor, mince the garlic and let it sit in the lemon juice and olive oil mixture for a few minutes before combining with the other ingredients.

- Add the lemon juice just before serving to maintain the freshness of the avocado.

- Mix the salad gently to avoid mashing the avocado, preserving the chunkiness of the ingredients.

- Feel free to add more fresh herbs like mint or cilantro for an extra burst of flavor.

Enjoy this crisp radish and avocado salad as a delightful addition to your meal. The vibrant flavors and contrasting textures make for an unforgettable taste experience that’s both satisfying and healthy.
