This salad is also great as a salsa. Just add a little bit of heat with some chopped jalapeños.

This calico corn salad was a hit at my last potluck! The combination of sweet corn, black beans, tomatoes, and avocado was delicious, and the lime-cilantro dressing added a nice tang. I'll definitely be making this again.
