Avocado Corn Salad with Lime Vinaigrette Recipe
Now that spring is finally emerging I’m thinking Salads. I’ve been in the mood for lighter meals than the heavier cold-weather pot roasts and hearty sandwiches I have been eating. But this is not your ordinary Salad Fare. Savory, full of healthy fats, and packed with nutrients, Avocado Corn Salad is dressed with a tangy lime vinaigrette that perks me right up instead of leaving me feeling sluggish after lunch.
The recipe here is perfect on it’s own, but you could also serve it on a bed of spring mix, wrapped in a pita, or even on a pizza crust! I love it for lunch, but it’s also a go-to dish whenever I have to bring something to a summer cook-out.
Plus, it’s super-simple to throw together.
