Avocado Corn Salad


Avocados are healthy and delicious - providing nearly 20 essential nutrients. Instead of grabbing a bag of chips and quacamole (which occasionally happens), I decided to incorporate the nutritious ingredient into something else. This avocado corn salad is a great addition to any meal - and guilt free!

    You'll need:

    2 avocados
    1 can of black beans
    2 cups of sweet yellow corn
    1 lime
    2 tablespoons olive oil
    1 red onion
    1 ripe tomato
    1 red pepper
    4 tablespoons cilantro
    Parsley (to taste)


Cut the avocado into cubes and add to the beans and yellow corn.  Dice the onion, pepper and tomato and mix in. In a separate bowl, combine olive oil, cilantro, parsley and salt and pepper to taste.  Mix into the avocado, beans and corn. Enjoy!
