Corn Tomato and Avocado Salad
I needed to make something for our monthly cooking club that could be made without a kitchen. I decided to do some sort of a side and when I saw this recipe I knew we’d all love it. It’s actually very similar to the summer salsa that I make on a regular basis.
I added cilantro to the dish because everyone loves cilantro, right? I know that people tend to either love it or hate it, and I’m definitely a cilantro lover.
This salad makes a great side dish for any summer cookout. And it’s so easy to throw together. I mixed everything together except the avocado a day in advance. Then right before serving, the avocado is added.
Corn, Tomato, and Avocado Salad – from Cooking This and That – makes 4 servings
10 ounces frozen corn, thawed completely
1 pint cherry or grape tomatoes, halved
2 scallions, thinly sliced
1 avocado, diced
2 tablespoons lime juice
1 tablespoon good quality olive oil
kosher salt and coarse ground black pepper, to taste
cilantro to tasteCombine corn, tomatoes, scallions in large bowl. Whisk together lime juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper (and cilantro) and pour over vegetables. Chill for 1-4 hours.
When ready to serve, add gently fold in avocado and allow salad to come to room temperature. Season again with salt and pepper if needed.
This sounds awesome! The pictures are wonderful as well. I can’t for the life of me figure out how to get good burger pictures. I love the pizza sauce on this! Thanks!
Yum! I love chicken parmesan and I love burgers, so why not, right? They look delicious!

I love how there are so many variations of burgers! Yours sound delcious!
I love chicken parmesan so this sound so great to me! Like you, I love living in the city but wish I could grill during the summer!
So glad you liked them! Love the caramelized onions on top. I just had a burger with bbq caramelized onions this week. 🙂
i love this idea! was writing my grocery list and realized there is no parmesan in the recipe?
That’s a good point, there isn’t actually Parmesan in it… You could use parm instead of provolone cheese.
