Avocado Cherry Tomato and Corn Salad is so easy and quick to throw together and always a delicious side addition to a barbecue or a home cooked meal.
We braai (BBQ) a lot – I mean, who watches a Rugby match without the grill on? And this Avocado Cherry Tomato and Corn Salad is so easy and quick to throw together !
Speaking of Rugby, I am a enormous gigantic HUGE fan of the Blue Bulls. Always have been, and always will be .. got that?? ALWAYS!
Now in our house things are a bit complicated. Everyone has a different team we support. Yeah, it can get serious on a game day …
ME : Blue Bulls
HUBBY : Sharks
SON : Lions/Hurricanes
DAUGHTER : Stormers
Right, but we all agree – Rugby and a Braai goes hand in hand. No matter the weather !
This recipe can easily be doubled or tripled.
