Ingredients

• 2 cups Fresh corn kernels (from about 3 ears of corn, or 2 cups frozen corn, thawed)
• 1.5 cups Cherry or grape tomatoes, halved
• 2 medium Avocado, diced
• 0.25 cup Red onion, finely diced
• 0.25 cup Cilantro, chopped
• 2 tablespoons Lime juice (freshly squeezed)
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

If using fresh corn, bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the ears of corn for 3-5 minutes. Remove the corn and let it cool slightly before slicing the kernels off the cob. If using frozen corn, simply thaw and drain the kernels.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the corn kernels, halved cherry tomatoes, diced avocado, and finely diced red onion.

Step 3

Add the chopped cilantro to the salad mixture for a fresh, herby flavor.

Step 4

In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. This will serve as your dressing.

Step 5

Drizzle the dressing over the salad and gently toss everything to coat evenly. Take care not to mash the avocado.

Step 6

Taste and adjust seasoning, adding more salt, pepper, or lime juice as needed.

Step 7

Serve immediately or chill for up to 1 hour before serving. Best enjoyed fresh.
