Fresh corn and avacado salad
- Minutes to Prepare:
- Number of Servings: 4
Ingredients
Ingredients: (serves 4)• 4 ears yellow or white corn (uncooked) • 1 cup cherry or grape tomatoes, sliced • 1 lime, juiced • 1/2 cup cilantro, finely chopped • 2 avocados, cubed • salt, to taste
No need to cook the corn ahead of time. The lime juice softens it just enough, and combined with avocado and tomatoes, it is just the right mix of textures and flavors.
Slice the grape tomatoes lengthwise, and add to the bowl with the corn. Chop 1/2 cup fresh cilantro and add to the salad.
Toss veggies with the juice of one lime and a few pinches of salt to taste. Allow flavors to marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
Before serving, dice avocados and combine with the rest of the salad. Add these close to meal time, or else the avocados will brown.
Mix it all and adjust seasoning to taste, and then serve.
