In an effort to feel a little less like I’m melting this summer, I’m trying to make as many cold & refreshing dishes as possible. Here’s a simple, delicious seasonal salad that doubles awesomely as a salsa for tortilla chips.
Corn & Radish Summer Salad
corn cobs
radishes, thinly sliced
avocado, diced
cilantro (cilantro flowers pictured but not ideal)
salt
lime
Boil your corn for about 10 minutes to to desired doneness. Remove kernels with a knife when cobs are cool enough to handle.
Toss with sliced radishes and the juice of one or two limes depending how much salad you have.
Add salt & chopped cilantro to taste. Stir well. Gently toss avocado in.
Chill* for an hour or two & serve. Eat with a spoon or tortilla chips.
Enjoy!
*Chilling isn’t necessary but it helps the flavors mix and, if you’re as hot and sweaty as I am this July, you’ll want something really cold in your mouth.
