Whisk the dressing ingredients together in a small bowl and set aside.
Now add the avocado and the dressing to the rest of the ingredients. Lightly toss. Sprinkle with crushed peanuts and serve promptly. Serving Suggestions: Serve as a side salad, or top with a few slices of chicken or steak and make it a main dish.
