- 1/4 cup red onion finely chopped
- 2 tbsp fresh cilantro chopped
Dressing
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp lime juice fresh

- In a large mixing bowl, combine the corn, diced avocado, cherry tomatoes, red onion, and chopped cilantro.

Notes
Add crumbled feta cheese or grilled chicken for extra protein. Best served fresh to maintain avocado texture.
