This salad is great for numerous reasons: the ingredients are incredibly cheap, it's healthy, easy to make and includes avocado (a sure way to make any dish at least twice as delicious). We usually eat it with pita chips and tend to have enough leftovers for breakfast
the next day; the longer you leave it marinating the more flavorful it becomes so it's improved by a night in the refrigerator. It also tastes good with chopped orange bell pepper and I'd like to try it with quinoa sometime. We brought this to a potluck before and it was a big hit!
