Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups Fresh Corn Kernels
  • 2 large Ripe Avocados
  • 1 cup Cherry Tomatoes
  • 1/2 cup Red Onio
  • 1/4 cup Fresh Cilantro
  • 3 tablespoons Fresh Lime Juice
  • 2 tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 1 teaspoon Honey or Agave
  • 1 clove Garlic
  • 1/2 teaspoon Ground Cumi
  • Salt and Black Pepper to taste

Method
 

  1. Prepare the Corn: Remove husks and silk from fresh ears of corn. Boil for three minutes or grill for a charred flavor. Strip the kernels into a large mixing bowl.
  2. Dice the Vegetables: Dice avocados into uniform cubes, halve cherry tomatoes, and finely dice red onion. Add to the bowl with corn.
  3. Chop the Herbs: Roughly chop fresh cilantro and add to the bowl.
  4. Whisk the Dressing: Combine lime juice, olive oil, honey, minced garlic, cumin, salt, and pepper in a small jar or bowl. Shake or whisk until emulsified.
  5. Combine: Pour dressing over the vegetables and gently fold together without mashing the avocado.
  6. Chill and Serve: Let sit for at least ten minutes before serving or chill for later.

Notes

Use fresh lime juice for the best flavor. Store leftovers in an airtight container with plastic wrap pressed against the surface to prevent browning.
