Peruvian Bean Salad image

This beautiful salad is loaded with colourful vegetables and beans. It's an ideal dish to bring to a pot luck or buffet as it can sit for hours and it's flavour only improves. I love the addition of the avocado. It makes it unlike other bean salads I've tried. From Chatelaine and posted for ZWT 7
