Easy Avocado Edamame Salad with black beans! Just 8 simple ingredients and packed with plant-based protein & fresh veggies.

This easy, 8-ingredient salad has a double protein punch (edamame + black beans!) It’s tossed with a simple squeeze of lime juice for some bright, fresh flavor.
Plus it works great as either a side or main dish salad. Beautiful year-round, but especially in summer when tomatoes and corn are in season.

Check out the variation notes below the ingredients for additional ideas. Try garlic, cumin, agave, or play around with other flavors if desired. I’d love to hear what you come up with.
Plus this is a fantastic make-ahead dish as the flavors wonderfully intensify as it chills in the fridge. Which makes it a great choice for picnics, potlucks, take along lunches, meal prep, etc.
If making ahead of time, simply save the avocado to toss in right before serving.
