Cinnamon Free Vegan Fresh Avocado Cucumber Salad
Bright, creamy, and loaded with fresh produce, this avocado cucumber salad is the kind of dish that disappears fast at any table. Cubed avocado and crisp English cucumber get tossed with juicy cherry tomatoes, sharp red onion, and fragrant cilantro for a bowl that looks as good as it tastes. The dressing is a simple whisk of lime juice, olive oil, and ground cumin — bold and zesty without a single warming spice in sight, which makes it a genuinely safe pick for anyone navigating cinnamon sensitivities. So many store-bought dressings and spice blends sneak in unexpected ingredients, but here you control every element from start to finish. A touch of jalapeño adds optional heat if you want it, and the whole thing comes together in minutes with no cooking required. Fold gently so the avocado stays in satisfying chunks rather than turning into guacamole, and serve it right away while everything is at its freshest.
