We have been trying to eat healthier, and I love finding different combinations of veggies to create fresh salads. This is a twist on a similar recipe that I have used before, and I like to switch up the ingredients every so often.
Ingredients:
Tomatoes (one pack of cherry or grape tomatoes)
1/2 English cucumber
2 Avocados
1 cup corn
Cilantro
Lemon juice
Salt and pepper
Directions:
Halve the tomatoes, and chop the cucumbers into chunks. Mince a handful of fresh cilantro, and toss with the tomatoes and cucumber.
For the corn, I usually use frozen organic corn, but in the summer, I also use fresh corn that I cut off the cob. I like to steam many ears of corn and then cut it off the cob to save for recipes like this.
Chop up two ripe (but firm) avocados. Toss gently with the rest of the mixture, or sprinkle on top instead of mixing in, so that the avocado stays intact.
Add a splash of lemon juice, and salt to taste (and pepper, if desired).
Enjoy!
My friend loves avocados and salads. She prefers simple recipes that work for lunch or dinner so I bet she’d enjoy this.
I love avocado, so this sounds like the perfect lunch to me!
I have so many avocado loving friends that will love this salad!

My mom and I are always trying to incorporate more veggies in our diet. This looks like just the recipe to give us that start. It looks great!
Yum!! Great way to get in some extra veggies
Mmmm I love both Avocado and corn, this sounds and looks like it would be pretty tasty.
What a great salad. Perfect to serve for the Summer.
(Corn & Avocado Salad) This sounds like a great salad recipe that I would make for myself sometime. More for me, not so much for hubby though. He is mostly a meat and potato man.
This is totally my type of salad. Avocados are in-season and on sale right now, so i will be making this salad this week.

This salad looks amazing and one that I am so going to make thanks for sharing.
I held out on the avocado trend for a long time, unsure about whether I’d like it or not. Recently I gave in and I’m TOTALLY hooked… not sure why it took me so long!!! I am looking forward to trying this next.
