Recipe View Serve immediately or chill for later. Garnish with a few extra avocado slices or a sprinkle of paprika, if desired.

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a sprinkle of crumbled feta cheese or toasted pumpkin seeds.
To prevent the avocado from browning, toss it with a little lime juice immediately after dicing.
This salad is best served fresh. If preparing ahead of time, add the avocado just before serving.
The combination of watermelon and avocado may sound unusual, but trust me, it works beautifully. The sweetness of the watermelon is perfectly balanced by the creamy richness of the avocado.
