Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 ears fresh corn on the cob
- 2 large ripe avocados
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes
- 0.5 medium red onion
- 0.5 cup fresh cilantro
- 2 medium fresh lime
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Husk the corn and remove all silk. Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add the corn. Cook for about 4-5 minutes until the kernels are tender. Remove the corn and allow it to cool slightly.
Once cooled, use a sharp knife to cut the kernels off the cob. Place the kernels in a large mixing bowl.
Halve the avocados, remove the pits, and dice the flesh. Add the avocado to the mixing bowl with the corn.
Slice the cherry tomatoes in half and add them to the bowl.
Finely chop the red onion and fresh cilantro and add them to the mixture.
Juice the limes over the salad. Be sure to catch any seeds.
Drizzle the extra-virgin olive oil over the salad.
Season with sea salt and black pepper to taste. Toss everything gently to combine, being careful not to mash the avocado.
Serve immediately or chill for 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Enjoy your paleo fresh corn salad with avocado and lime!
