In central Mexico, this salad is a standard—served as an appetizer, main dish or taco filling. Serve it with lime wedges, warm tortillas or tortilla chips. (Recipe from Fiesta at Rick’s by Rick Bayless; W.W. Norton and Company, July 2010.)
Make Ahead Tip: Cover and refrigerate the salad for up to 2 days. Stir in the avocado just before serving.
