Halve the cherry tomatoes and add them to the bowl.
Peel and seed the cucumber, then slice it into half-moons and add to the salad bowl.
Finely chop the red onion and add it to the bowl.
Halve the avocado, remove the pit, scoop out the flesh, and cut it into cubes. Add the avocado to the salad bowl.
Rinse the canned black beans under cold water and drain well before adding to the salad.
Add the corn kernels to the salad. If using fresh corn, boil for a few minutes, cool, and cut from the cob.
In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, olive oil, chipotle powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Pour the dressing over the salad and toss gently to coat all the ingredients.
Serve the salad immediately as a refreshing appetizer or as a side dish.
