Directions
- In a big bowl, mix in the tomatoes, the diced avocados, red onion and mint.
- Prepare the dressing by mixing the honey, lime juice and pepper until smooth. Add the olive oil in a thin stream, stirring as you add it so it emulsifies with the lime juice and honey. Check for salt and pepper.
- Add the dressing to the vegetables and let it sit for at least 10 minutes. Serve cold or at room temperature. Enjoy!
