2. Prepare the Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, olive oil, 2 tablespoons of Twang Chamoy Snack Salt, and black pepper.
3. Combine the Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, diced mango, red bell pepper, red onion, cilantro, and mint. Pour the dressing over the salad and toss to combine.
4. Add Avocado: If using, gently fold in the diced avocado just before serving.
Serve: Serve the salad chilled or at room temperature.
