Make the dressing: Place a cup or more of freshly sliced pineapple in a blender or mini food processor including the lime juice, salt and pepper and then puree.
Pour one cup of the dressing into the salad mixture and toss gently to combine. Let it sit for 10 minutes to develop flavor. Add the avocado, pineapple and cilantro. Delicately toss to combine and add more dressing according to your taste and serve.
Notes
Another option if you don't have a blender or food processor, finely slice the pineapple and add it to the salad mixture with the rest of the dressing. You will not get the creaminess but you will still get the bold flavor and taste as well.
