Avocados were once a luxury food reserved for the tables of royalty, however these days they are enjoyed by people from all walks of life.

Prep Time: 10-15 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes

Ingredients

In a bowl combine the potatoes and onion and season with salt and pepper. Cut the avocado into small dice and toss gently with lemon juice.
