Ingredients:
1 pint grape tomatoes
1 ripe avacado
2 ears fresh sweet corn
2 tbsp. fresh cilantro, chopped
Honey Lime Dressing
Juice of 1 lime
3 tbsp. vegetable oil
1 tbsp. honey
Sea salt and fresh cracked pepper, to tast
1 clove garlic, minced
Dash of cayenne pepper
Directions:
Remove husks from corn and grill over medium heat for 10 min. The corn should have some brown spots and be tender but not mushy. Cut the corn off the cob then scrape the cob with the back of your knife to get the juices. Set aside and let cool. Slice the tomatoes in half. Dice the avocado and chop the cilantro.
Honey Lime Dressing:
1. Add all the dressing ingredients in a small bowl and whisk to combine. Set Aside.
2. Combine sliced tomatoes, avocado, cilantro and grilled corn with honey lime dressing. Mix gently so everything is evenly coated. Be careful not to mash the avocados. Let the salad sit for 10-15 minutes to let flavors mingle. Serve with tortilla chips or by the spoonful!
