I make this salad a lot, with a few changes that I think make it even better. I add a lot more cilantro, tomatoes, & 2-3 avocados. I also add a can of black beans and sometimes chopped cucumber. Really delicious!

This is quite good, light and refreshing. I ate it as a whole meal. Made it with brown rice and all I would do differently otherwise is add extra pepper.
