Notes
If you want to make this pasta salad a day ahead of time that is fine! I would add the avocado right before serving though to prevent it from browning. You can substitute pinto beans for black beans if you prefer. Pepper jack cheese would be a great substitute for the cheddar if you want to kick up the spiciness a bit!
