A delicious Grilled corn avocado tomato salad with lime as a side or even just an afternoon meal
Ingredients
1-pint grape tomatoes
1 ripe avocado
2 ears of fresh sweet corn
2 tbsp. fresh cilantro, chopped
Honey Lime Dressing
Ingredients
Juice of 1 lime
3 tbsp. vegetable oil
1 tbsp. honey
Sea salt and fresh cracked pepper, to taste
1 clove garlic, minced
Dash of cayenne pepper
Method
Remove husks from corn and grill over medium heat for 10 minutes. The corn should have some brown spots and be tender and 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
Method
Add all the dressing ingredients to a small bowl and whisk to combine. Set aside.
Combine the sliced tomatoes, avocado, cilantro, and grilled corn and honey-lime dressing and 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. Enjoy.

Now in the fridge, waiting for the flavors to mingle and ready for lunch.
