Ingredients
- 2 cups Fresh corn kernels
- 1.5 cups Cherry tomatoes
- 0.5 cup Red onion
- 0.25 cup Fresh cilantro
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lime juice
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 whole Avocado (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Prepare the corn: If using fresh corn on the cob, remove the kernels by standing the cob upright on a cutting board and slicing downward with a sharp knife. Measure out 2 cups of kernels.
Step 2
Halve the cherry tomatoes and add them to a large mixing bowl.
Step 3
Finely chop the red onion and fresh cilantro. Add both to the bowl with the tomatoes.
Step 4
If using avocado, cut it in half, remove the pit, and dice it into bite-sized pieces. Add the diced avocado to the bowl.
Step 5
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, fresh lime juice, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.
Step 6
Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients in the large bowl. Gently toss to combine, being careful not to mash the tomatoes or avocado if included.
Step 7
Adjust salt and pepper to taste, if necessary.
Step 8
Serve immediately or let the salad sit for 10-15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. Enjoy!
