For a spicier kick, add a finely chopped jalapeño to the salad.
If you don't have jicama, you can substitute with chopped celery or cucumber for a similar crunch.
To prevent the avocado from browning, toss it with a little lime juice before adding it to the salad.
This salad is best served chilled. If making ahead, add the avocado just before serving to prevent it from discoloring.
Serve this salad with tortilla chips, on top of tostadas, or as a filling for lettuce wraps.
