Dare I say?
This might be my favorite recipe on the blog to date! I know, it’s a bold statement.
But it’s true! There’s nothing fancy about it. Just a few fresh, simple ingredients that come together to make the perfect dish.
It’s amazing what the right combination of flavors can produce!
And it’s JUST in time for Cinco de Mayo! I’ve served this dish as a salad, but decided to make it into a chunky salsa.
The sweet corn, mixed with the salty, crunchy tortilla chips is mind blowing.
MIND BLOWING!
Dramatic, I know.
Also, USE FRESH CORN. Frozen won’t cut it for this dish where the corn is the star.
I’m serving this as an appetizer to my Mexican Lasagna for dinner tonight.
Best dinner ever.
YEEEEEEEEEES.

Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon Lawry's seasoning (or any seasoning of your choice)
- 4 ears of fresh corn

- 1 avocado, diced
Instructions
- 1) Fill a large pot with water and bring to a boil. Add seasoning then add the corn and boil for 5 minutes.
