Avocado Edamame Tomato Salad

1 medium avocado
1 cup cherry or grape tomatoes
3/4 cup shelled edamame
1/4 cup finely diced red onion or shallot (I prefer shallots - they're more mild and I go easy on them)
1 TBS fresh lime juice

Dressing:
2 TBS fresh lime juice
1/4 tsp cumin
1/4 tsp Spike! seasoning (I had never heard of this before, but had no problem finding it in the spice aisle and it really is good.)
1/4 tsp salt
1 1/2 TBS extra virgin olive oil

Dice avocado into bite size pieces and immediately toss with 1 TBS lime juice. Halve or quarter cherry tomatoes into bite size pieces. If using frozen edamame, thaw. Finely dice onion or shallot. Combine all ingredients.

For the dressing: combine lime juice and seasonings and then slowly whisk in the olive oil. pour over salad and gently toss. Serve immediately.
