Summer Blast Salad with Avocado

ats

This is summer in a bowl! Fresh sweet corn, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, and herbs bring a blast of summery taste to this simple avocado salad. The homemade tangy dressing takes only 30 seconds to come together. It's basically a fancier rendition of this Cucumber Salad that I make all the time. I love it SO much and wanted to jazz it up a little 😉 Feel free to play around with your own favorite herbs, or use a combination. Another great recipe to customize with your own favorite flavors! (Next time I'm trying it with my Creamy Cilantro-Lime Dressing - will update soon!)



Ingredients

  • 8 oz. cherry tomatoes
  • 1 hothouse cucumber
  • 1 avocado
  • 1 large ear of corn
  • Handful fresh cilantro (or basil, dill, parsley, etc.)
  • Optional: red or green onion

{For the dressing}

  • 1 Tbsp. olive oil
  • 2-3 Tbsp. white wine vinegar (or fresh lemon juice)
  • 1/8 tsp. salt, or more to taste
  • Optional: minced garlic

Directions

  • Boil or steam the corn. (I steam mine in a steamer basket for 5 minutes.) When cooked, carefully cut kernels off the cob.
  • Dice cucumber and avocado, and halve tomatoes. Add to a bowl with the corn.
  • Roughly chop your herb of choice (I used cilantro) and add to bowl.
