Ingredients
2 Tbsp distilled white vinegar ($0.07)
1 Tbsp apple cider vinegar ($0.03)
1 Tbsp olive oil ($0.11)
1/8 tsp salt, plus more to taste ($0.01)
1 pinch black pepper ($0.01)
2 Tbsp finely chopped cilantro (plus a few whole leaves for garnish) ($0.05)
2 medium tomatoes ($0.90)
1/2 medium yellow onion ($0.38)
2 medium avocados ($1.98)
3/8 tsp salt, divided ($0.02)
Instructions
1 Make the dressing. In a mason jar, add white vinegar, apple cider vinegar, olive oil, finely chopped cilantro, salt, and pepper. Cover and give it a good shake.
2 Slice the tomatoes into 1/4-inch thick rounds, then slice the rounds into halves. Slice the yellow onion into 1/4-inch thick half-moons. Slice the avocados into 1/4-inch thick half moons. If the avocados are large, then slice the half-moons in half.
3 Add half the tomato slices to a large dinner plate in one layer. Spoon 2 teaspoons of the dressing on the tomatoes and sprinkle with 1 pinch of salt.
4 Add half the onions in a single layer and drizzle with 2 teaspoons of dressing and a pinch of salt. Add half of the avocado slices in a single layer, and follow with 2 teaspoons of dressing and a pinch of salt.
5 Repeat the layering process with the remaining slices of tomatoes, onions, and avocados. Garnish with a few cilantro leaves and serve.
