Avocado Corn Salad is a vibrant, refreshing dish made with sweet corn, creamy avocado, juicy tomatoes, and a zesty lime dressing. Naturally gluten-free, dairy-free, and vegan, it’s the perfect quick side dish for summer barbecues, potlucks, or light lunches.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups corn (fresh, frozen, or canned and cooked)
  • 2 ripe avocados, diced
  • 1 cup cherry or grape tomatoes, halved
  • ¼ cup red onion, finely chopped
  • ¼ cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • Optional: 1 chopped jalapeño, ½ teaspoon cumin or chili powder, ¼ cup crumbled feta or cotija cheese

Instructions

  1. Prepare corn by grilling or cooking it (if using fresh or frozen). Let cool and cut kernels off the cob.
  2. Dice avocados, halve tomatoes, and finely chop red onion and cilantro.
  3. In a large bowl, combine corn, avocado, tomatoes, onion, and cilantro.
  4. Whisk together lime juice, olive oil, salt, pepper, and optional spices in a small bowl.
  5. Drizzle dressing over salad and gently toss to combine without mashing the avocado.
  6. Serve immediately or chill for 15–20 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • Add black beans for more protein.
  • Include diced cucumber or bell pepper for crunch.
  • Toss avocado in lime juice to prevent browning.
  • Serve with grilled meats, tacos, or tortilla chips.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 1 day.
