This summer Whitney (my soon to be second daughter in law) and I made this wonderful Fresh Corn Salsa. It is pretty much the epitome of SUMMER. Don’t be turned off with all the chopping, just grab a friend or family member to be with you, or put on some of your favorite music. All the chopping gave us plenty of time to visit and laugh. It was super fun to make and eat!
What you need to make Fresh Corn Salsa:
Corn (we used fresh, but frozen works too)
Avocado
Sweet Bell Pepper (orange or red looks best)
Red Onion (sweet onion works well too)
Cherry Tomatoes (roma tomates would work too)
Cilantro
Cucumber
Lime Juice
Salt and Pepper
How to Eat it:
I like to eat this as a salsa with salty chips, but its is equally good as a side dish or on top of grilled chicken, steak, fish or pork tenderloin. It is also fabulous on tacos or on top your salad. All the fresh ingredients come together for an absolutely irresistible recipe. I am sure you will find many ways to enjoy it!
