Cinnamon Free Avocado Cucumber Cilantro Salad

Cool, creamy, and packed with fresh flavor, this salad is the kind of dish that disappears fast at any table. Ripe avocado and crisp English cucumber are a natural pairing — one rich and buttery, the other light and refreshing — and the torn cilantro ties everything together with a bright, herby lift. The dressing is a simple whisk of olive oil, apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, and cumin, which gives the whole bowl a tangy, savory depth without relying on any warming spices. For anyone navigating a sensitivity to cinnamon, that last point matters more than it might seem — plenty of spice blends and bottled dressings sneak it in, but every ingredient here is straightforward and easy to verify. Folding the avocado in gently at the end keeps the chunks intact and the texture luxurious rather than mushy. A scatter of scallion greens on top adds a mild oniony finish that makes the whole thing look as good as it tastes. Serve it immediately for the best texture, and don't be surprised when people ask for the recipe.
