Tomatoes and onions lay the foundation, but Kachumbari is no ordinary salad. Picture this: succulent avocados, crisp cucumbers, aromatic cilantro, and a hint of heat from habanero peppers—all dancing together in a harmonious medley. To elevate this culinary masterpiece, we’ve crafted a simple yet exquisite dressing using lime juice, balsamic vinegar, honey, olive oil, and a sprinkle of salt and pepper.
