Ingredients

• 2 cups Fresh corn kernels (from about 2 ears of corn or 2 cups frozen and 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
• 3 tablespoons Lime juice (from about 2 limes)
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Ground black pepper

Directions

Step 1

If using fresh corn, bring a pot of water to a boil. Add the corn cobs and cook for 3-5 minutes, then remove and allow to cool. Cut the kernels off the cob using a sharp knife.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the corn kernels, halved cherry or grape tomatoes, diced avocado, red onion, and chopped cilantro.

Step 3

In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.

Step 4

Pour the lime dressing over the salad ingredients and gently toss everything together until well coated. Be careful not to mash the avocado.

Step 5

Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed. Add more lime juice, salt, or pepper to suit your preference.

Step 6

Serve immediately or chill in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. Enjoy!
