Black Bean Avocado Salad

Avocados are a “super fruit” that provide nearly 20 essential nutrients, including fiber, potassium, vitamin E, B-vitamins, and folic acid. They also enable the body to absorb more fat-soluble nutrients such as alpha and beta-carotene and lutein, when eaten with this fruit. This recipe has a lot of different textures and flavors that can be served as a side dish, a main dish with rice, or paired with grilled chicken, for a quick and easy meal.

1 lime

Cilantro (for garnish)
