Fresh corn salad with creamy avocado, lime dressing, red onion, and herbs, creating a balanced mix of sweet, citrus, and creamy textures.
4 cups fresh corn kernels (about 5 ears of corn)
2 ripe avocados, diced
1/3 cup red onion, finely diced
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 small jalapeño, finely chopped (optional)
Add avocado just before serving to maintain texture. Grilled corn can add smoky flavor. Chill corn mixture separately if preparing ahead.
