Creamy avocado, juicy cherry tomatoes, crisp cucumber, and bright cilantro come together in a bowl that looks as good as it tastes. The real star is the zesty lime dressing ā a quick whisk of olive oil, fresh lime juice, lime zest, garlic, and cumin that ties every ingredient together with bold, citrusy punch. Everything here is naturally free of dairy, so there's no swapping, substituting, or label-reading required ā just fresh, whole ingredients doing exactly what they're supposed to do. Optional black beans add a hearty, protein-rich element that makes this work just as well as a light main course as it does a side. The key move is folding the dressing in gently so the avocado stays in satisfying chunks rather than turning into guacamole. A final taste and squeeze of extra lime right before serving keeps the flavors sharp and vibrant. This is the kind of salad that disappears fast, so you might want to double it.
