Preparation

In a bowl gently mix the avocados with the lime juice to keep them from browning. Add the beans, diced tomato, chopped red onion, corn and cilantro to the bowl.

Dressing

In a bowl whisk together the olive oil with the remaining lime juice. Add ground cumin and season with salt and pepper. If desired for some spiciness in your salad dressing mix in the chopped jalapeño.

Combining Ingredients

Pour the dressing over the ingredients. Gently toss everything together. Be careful not to break up the avocado while ensuring that all ingredients are evenly coated with dressing.

Chilling

For flavor infusion into each ingredient let your salad chill in the refrigerator for at least half an hour before serving. This allows the flavors to blend together nicely.

Serve it chilled either on its own or as an accompaniment to grilled meats or fish.
