Corn Avocado Salad


There is nothing like grilled corn in the summer months.  I buy lots of it.  It's delicious and inexpensive.  I make this salad that takes advantage of the corn and I add avocado and cilantro to it so serve as a side dish.

Ingredients
4 ears of grilled corn on the cob
1 avocado
1/4 cup cilantro
1 tbsp fresh lime juice
sea salt
olive oil  

The amounts above are approximate. You can very slightly and still have the same outcome.

To grill corn:  soak corn in large bowl filled with water for a least 15 minutes.  Pull out and dry the outside. Put on hot grill and cook for about 15 minutes, turning every 5 minutes or so. Allow to cool slightly, then cut kernels off the corn and put them on a serving platter.

Slice avocado and arrange over top of corn.

Squeeze lime juice over all, then sprinkle salt over all.

Rough chop cilantro and put over top.

Sprinkle with a really good quality olive oil and serve.

Serves 4.
