Creamy avocado, juicy cherry tomatoes, crisp cucumber, and a zippy cilantro lime dressing come together in a salad that feels fresh, vibrant, and genuinely satisfying. The homemade dressing is whisked together from olive oil, fresh lime juice, lime zest, garlic, and a touch of cumin — bold, bright flavors with zero mystery ingredients. For anyone navigating grain sensitivities, this is the kind of dish that requires absolutely no substitutions or label-checking, because every single component is naturally whole and clean. The optional black beans add a hearty, protein-rich element that makes it feel like a full meal rather than just a side. Folding everything together gently keeps those avocado chunks intact, so each bite delivers that buttery richness without turning into guacamole. Serve it immediately for the best texture, or prep the dressing ahead and toss it together right before eating.
