Note
- If you don't have fresh parsley, you can substitute it with fresh dill or cilantro.
- You can also add some chopped cherry tomatoes, jalapeños, or red bell peppers for additional flavor and texture.
- If you want to make this salad ahead of time, I recommend waiting to add the avocado until just before serving to prevent it from browning.
- This recipe is also easily customizable to your taste preferences. If you prefer a tangier salad, add more lemon juice. If you like it spicy, add some hot sauce or red pepper flakes.
