Ingredients

Scale

  • 4 slices of bacon, cooked and crumbled

  • 2 ears of fresh corn (or 1 ½ cups frozen corn, thawed)

  • 1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved

  • 2 ripe avocados, diced

  • ¼ cup red onion, finely chopped

  • 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped

  • Juice of 1 lime

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

  • Salt and black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Drain on paper towels, then crumble and set aside.

  2. Cook the corn: If using fresh corn, boil or grill it for about 5 minutes until tender. Let cool, then cut kernels off the cob.

  3. Make the dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together lime juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper.

  4. Assemble the salad: In a large bowl, combine corn, tomatoes, avocado, red onion, and cilantro.

  5. Add bacon and drizzle the dressing over the top. Gently toss everything together.

  6. Serve immediately or chill for up to 30 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • Add crumbled feta or cotija cheese for extra flavor.

  • For a spicy kick, toss in some diced jalapeño.

  • If making ahead, add avocado right before serving to keep it from browning.
