Test Kitchen Tip
This salad can be mixed together ahead, but wait to add the avocado until just before serving so it doesn’t turn brown.

Whisk together oil, lime juice, vinegar, oregano, cumin, coriander, and cayenne and toss with salad; season with salt and black pepper. Stir in avocados just before serving.
