Author Notes

This bright, colorful, flavorful, and healthy summer salad is a favorite at all my backyard gatherings. It is loaded with veggies, low in calories, full of fiber, just so tasty, and easy to make! It can be prepared a day ahead with the avocados cut and added just before serving (or placed on the side for guests to add). It keeps well in the refrigerator for a few days (if there are any leftovers!). I give full credit to Ann Marie who modified the recipe by adding the specific type of oil and type of vinegar. She is my cousin, close friend, and an all around amazing woman. We share all of our best recipes. Love you Ann! —PGPetrich

What You'll Need

  2. Drain the corn.
  3. Dice the onions and tomatoes.
