  1. Rinse and drain black beans. If using canned corn, drain it as well. For enhanced flavor, lightly grill or pan-fry the corn before adding it to the salad.
  2. Combine black beans, corn, finely diced red onion, and chopped cilantro in a bowl.
  3. In a small blender or food processor, combine avocado, lime juice, olive oil, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth and creamy.
  4. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Add a pinch of salt or a squeeze of lime to brighten the flavors.
  5. Pour avocado-lime dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine. Serve immediately or chill for later.
