Corn Salad with Avocados and Tomatoes

We currently have corn and tomatoes coming out of our ears over here. Our tomato plants are CRAZY. My middle child loves cherry tomatoes straight off the plant. I’m lucky if I get some because every morning she wakes up and asks to go check her tomato plants.

Heavens, if she sees a red tomato from the house she’s bound and determined she is going to get it RIGHT now and there’s no changing her mind.

Luckily for me, my Dad always plants a big sweet corn patch out on the farm so I’ve got that too. I just love, love, love sweet corn!

Mix that crunchy, fresh grilled sweet corn with the bursting fresh cherry tomatoes and this Grilled Corn Salad is AMAZING!

The perfect summer salad for you.

What kind of dressing goes on grilled corn salad?

I use an easy homemade lime vinaigrette – all you need to do is whisk together olive oil and salt, lime juice, cumin, and pepper. It’s really that simple and it’s the great compliment for the salad. The lime brightens the flavors and goes perfectly the corn and avocado. Bonus? It keeps the avocado from turning brown also!

How do I make corn salad?

Prepare the Corn – Shuck the corn and brush with olive oil and season with salt. Grill until until the corn is tender and you have great grill marks, about 10-15 minutes. Turn corn occasionally. Remove the corn from the grill and cool. Cut the kernels and place large bowl.

Mix the dressing – Whisk all the ingredients for the dressing in a small bowl.

Toss together – Add avocado, tomatoes, onion and cilantro to the bowl with corn. Pour the dressing over the top and toss to combine.
