Servings: 6
- 4 ears corn husks & silk removed
- 3 large avocados
- 1 cup little tomatoes (grape, cherry, etc.) cut into halves
- 1 bunch cilantro chopped
- 1/3 cup chopped red onion
- 1 jalapeno pepper chopped
- Salt & pepper to taste
Dressing:
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 1/2 tablespoon honey
Bring a large pot of water to a boil, and using tongs, insert the cobs of corn and cook for 4 minutes. Once they're done, drain them and fill the pot with cold water to stop the corn from cooking and to cool it.
Meanwhile, add the dressing ingredients to a large salad bowl and whisk until combined.
While the corn cools, prep the remaining salad ingredients and add them to the bowl.
Once the corn is cool, cut the corn off the cobs and add it to the salad bowl.
Toss until combined and taste and adjust as needed (e.g. add a splash more lime juice). Season generously with salt & pepper.
