Avocado Corn Salad
Ingredients
For the Salad
2 cups sweet corn kernels (fresh, grilled, or canned and drained)
2 ripe avocados, diced
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
1/2 red onion, finely diced
1/2 cucumber, diced
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
For the Dressing
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1 teaspoon honey
1/2 teaspoon chili flakes
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Directions
Step 1: Prepare the Vegetables
Place the corn kernels, diced avocado, cherry tomatoes, red onion, cucumber, and chopped cilantro in a large mixing bowl.
Step 2: Make the Dressing
In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lime juice, honey, chili flakes, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Step 3: Combine the Salad
Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients and gently toss to coat everything evenly without mashing the avocado.
Step 4: Chill for Flavor
Let the salad sit for 10–15 minutes in the refrigerator so the flavors blend together.
Step 5: Serve
Serve fresh as a light side dish or alongside grilled chicken, fish, or tacos.
