  • 2 ripe avocados diced
  • 2 cups corn kernels (you can use fresh, canned, or frozen corn)

  • 2 olive oil
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves chopped
  • 1-2 garlic cloves minced for added flavor (optional)

Instructions

  • If you're using fresh corn, boil or steam it until it's tender, then cut the kernels off the cob. If using canned or frozen corn, make sure to thaw and drain it.
  • In a large bowl, combine the diced avocados, corn kernels, diced red bell pepper, and finely chopped red onion.
  • In a separate small bowl, whisk together the fresh lime juice, olive oil, and minced garlic (if using).
  • Pour the lime and olive oil dressing over the avocado and corn mixture. Gently toss everything together to coat the ingredients evenly.
  • Add chopped cilantro leaves and season the salad with salt and black pepper to taste. Mix well.
  • Taste the salad and adjust the seasoning or lime juice as needed.
  • Refrigerate the salad for about 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
  • Serve the avocado and corn salad cold as a side dish or a refreshing appetizer.
