Avocado-Lime Black Bean Salad

Oh my heck! This salad rocked my world when I made it (of course, I am unique in most of my eating habits so if it doesn't ring your bell . . .sorry).

2 15-oz cans black beans
1 lime, juiced
1/2 cup fresh cilantro leaves, chopped
2 small shallots, diced
1/2 T olive oil
3/4 t ground cumin
1/2 t Kosher salt, or to taste
ground black pepper to taste
1 large avocado, chopped into 1/2 inch pieces
1 large tomato chopped into small chunks

Drain the beans thoroughly and rinse. In a large bowl add the beans and toss with lime juice, cilantro leaves, diced shallot, and ground cumin. Season to taste with salt and black pepper. Add in the avocado and tomato. Serve at room temperature.
