Black Bean-Avocado Salad

I got this recipe from Vegetarian Times I don’t know how long ago, and I fall back on it every time the temperature hits triple digits where I live. I always try to make more than I will need so I can have it for dinner at least twice, and maybe even for lunch in between.
It’s easy and because there’s no cooking involved, it’s cool, too.
