Avocado Salad

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 it is a great way to use up avocados especially when there is a small window of time when they are ripe!

Ingredients:

~ Pint of grape tomatoes (I prefer grape tomatoes, but you can use other kinds if preferred)
~ 2 Avocados
~ 1 cup corn
~ Cilantro
~ Lemon juice
~ Salt and pepper

Cut the tomatoes in half. I usually choose grape tomatoes, because cherry tomatoes are a little juicier and sweeter, but it just depends on personal preference.

Prepare the corn as needed. I usually buy frozen organic corn, or you can use fresh corn, cooked and sliced off the cob. I serve this salad around room temperature, so if you are heating up frozen corn, it is ok if it is still warm.

Cut up the avocado into chunks, and chop the cilantro as desired.

Mix the ingredients together, adding olive oil, lemon juice, and salt to taste. It is ok if the avocado is mushy, as it almost becomes like a dressing.

What do you think?

    This look so good! I’m not a huge fan of avocados, but I have never really given them a chance. Perhaps I’ll give this recipe a try and really taste test avocados! Thanks for sharing!

    You know how much I love avocado and I try to include it in my daily intake. Tonight we are having avocado with tomatoes too but I am not too sure about the dressing as I feel there is no need to add in other flavors.

    This is one of my fave salads to make (minus the cilantro…I’m one of those people that LOVES mexican food but thinks that cilantro tastes like soap)! After reading this, I’ll have to add it back into my weekly meal mix!
