This recipe lends itself to so many different occasions because the flavors are

 

 

 

fresh and the colors are vibrant.  It's perfect for a buffet, especially when served in

 

 

 

individual portions.

About the Ingredients:

 

 

​

 

•  Corn-Use fresh corn if possible; I have used frozen corn that has been thawed

 

 

 

   under cold running water and drained well.  Canned corn does not work.

 

 

 

•  Avocado-There is nothing like the flavor of a fresh avocado or two. 

 

 

   

   The color adds so much to this dish.

 

 

 

•  Red onion-I like to use it because of the color and milder flavor.

​

​

 

•  Tomato-It adds a splash of color and flavor!

 

 

 

•  Bell pepper-Green or red, doesn't matter.  Adds additional sweetness

​

​

    to this tasty dish.

​

​

 

•  Garlic-Has to be fresh; minced or finely diced. 

 

 

 

•  Cilantro-Chop to a ½-inch dice so there are no big pieces.

​

​

 

•  Lime-Fresh juice and the zest for garnish.

Fresh corn makes all the difference in this dish, and it doesn't take that much.  I

 

 

 

love it as a dip for chips, but it also makes a great salad entree.

​
