Steps:

Tips:

  • To make the salad ahead of time, prepare it up to 24 hours in advance and store it in the refrigerator. Just be sure to add the avocado just before serving.
  • If you don't have a grill, you can roast the corn in the oven. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and roast the corn for 20-25 minutes, or until it is tender.
  • Feel free to add other ingredients to the salad, such as chopped tomatoes, cucumbers, or bell peppers.
  • For a spicier salad, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or chili powder.
