This Avocado and Corn Salad is ready within minutes and is ideal to serve with almost all main meals – crunchy, refreshing, healthy and always a winner
This is one of my very basic go-to salad recipes. Pasta, Potato and Rice salads are all starches and sometimes we have another side dish, salad or even part of the main dish, with loads of starches included.
Avocado and Corn Salad is just perfect to add as a non starch side dish to any meal.
It does not make sense to serve a potato salad when you have, for instance, baked potatoes as well.
I suppose some people like it that way, but too much of even a good thing, is not good.
This salad is extremely refreshing and crunchy. You can add and change ingredients as you wish. Add more or less of one ingredient or leave out if you do not like it.
You can always replace one ingredient with a another as well. I cut out the center of a tomato and only use the outer parts in this recipe.
The inside flesh can always be used in soups, stews and even gravies. Simply store in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
If you prefer to add the Avocado from the start, lightly sprinkle with Lemon Juice to avoid discoloration.

We are big into salads so I'll give this one a try. BUT I'm cutting the cucumber smaller, thick chunks aren't for me. It's taken me too long to get my husband to cut them small to let him go crazy on this salad. :-)
