PREPARATION
Prepare the quinoa as per package instructions until fully cooked, then allow to cool slightly.
Rinse and drain the black beans and edamame if using canned; if using frozen edamame, steam or boil until tender.
Dice the cherry tomatoes and red onion, and roughly chop the avocado and fresh cilantro.
In a large bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, black beans, edamame, cherry tomatoes, and red onion.
Drizzle in the olive oil and fresh lime juice, then gently toss to combine all ingredients.
Fold in the avocado and cilantro, and season the salad with salt and pepper to taste.
Let the salad rest for 5 minutes to allow flavors to meld, then serve immediately or chilled.
