If you’re looking for a fresh salad perfect for summer, you have to try this corn and avocado salad. It is summer on a plate, and the best part is that it’s easy to throw together.
Make it this weekend for a 4th of July party or a light lunch during the week. I made the dressing with lime juice and white vinegar, but you can add your favorite dressing.
Buen provecho!
Ingredients

- 2 avocados, peeled and sliced
- 2 large tomatoes, sliced

How refreshing salad! Although I’m winter this one is very tempting. A good cheese added will be great too.
Cheers,

I really don’t use avocado enough in my recipes, even though I do love it. This recipe is a good place to start. I love how colorful this is and imagine that it is both satisfying and light at the same time.
Hope you are doing good!

This salad looks sensational and sounds very refreshing and satisfying. I really like avocado and I’ll bet that later in the summer when the great heirloom tomatoes hit my farmers markets that it would be over the top good.
