Instructions:

1. Prepare the Onion:
- Begin by peeling the onion.

Tips:

- Choose ripe avocados that are slightly soft to the touch to ensure a creamy texture.

- Use fresh lemon juice for the best flavor.

- For a more vibrant presentation, consider using a mix of red and yellow tomatoes.

- If you prefer a milder onion flavor, rinse the chopped onion under cold water before adding it to the salad.

- You can add a pinch of salt and pepper to enhance the flavors even more.
