Ingredients

  • 2 cups fresh corn kernels, cut off the cob
  • ½ cup finely diced red bell pepper
  • ½ cup finely diced red onion
  • ½ cup quartered cherry tomatoes
  • 2 Tablespoons minced jalapeno
  • 1 Tablespoon chopped cilantro
  • 1 lime, juiced
  • 1 Tablespoon avocado oil
  • 2 large avocados, diced

Instructions

  • Bring a small pot of water to a boil over medium heat. Add the corn kernels and cook them for 2 minutes.
  • Drain the corn and run it under cold water until it is no longer warm. Drain well and then transfer the corn to a large bowl.
  • Add the red pepper, red onion, cherry tomatoes, jalapeno, cilantro, lime juice, and avocado oil. Toss to combine. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Add the avocado and stir gently–you don’t want to smash the avocado.
  • Serve at room temperature or chill in the fridge until ready to use.

Notes

  • Storage: Store any leftover salad in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. The avocado may start to brown after a few hours but the salad will still taste delicious.
