Corn Salad

     When it comes to Corn Season, there is no better way to celebrate than with a big bowl of delicious Corn Salad.  It holds all the exciting flavors and colors of what an amalgamation of produce looks like!  Not to mention this is large enough to feed a crowd!  Super easy to throw together, especially with my hot tips on cooking Corn on the Cob.  With a little chopping you can have spoonfuls of yum in every bite!  Use this as a side dish, or add a little protein to turn it into a main!  Either way you can't go wrong.  PS the quantities are just a suggestion, add more or less of any ingredient according to your taste!  ;)

Ingredients~

4 Ears of Corn, in the Husk or trimmed

10oz container of Cherry Tomatoes, halved

1 English Cucumber (sub with regular), diced

1 Orange Bell Pepper, diced

1/4 cup Red Onion, finely diced

1 bunch of Cilantro Leaves

1 Avocado, diced

Squeeze of Lime Juice

Salt, as desired to taste

Pepper, as desired to taste

     Wrap each trimmed Corn in wax paper like a tootsie roll and microwave individually for 1 minute, or put two in at a time and microwave for 2 minutes.  If your Corn is still in the Husk, then put entire Husked Corn in microwave for 1 minute and peel after it is cool to touch, repeat til all pieces of Corn have been cooked.  When cool enough, trim kernels from cob and put in large mixing bowl.  Add sliced Tomatoes, Cucumber, Bell Pepper, Onion, Cilantro, Avocado, Lime Juice, Salt and Pepper.  Toss til well incorporated.  Enjoy  :)
