Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups cherry or grape tomatoes halved
- 1 avocado chopped
- 2 fresh corn on the cob
- 1/2 red onion sliced
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- salt to taste
- fresh cracked black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Heat the grill to medium-high heat. Shuck the corn to remove the husks and surrounding fibers.
- Once the grill is heated, place the corn on the grill and grill for about 10 minutes over medium heat, turning the corn often until it is nicely toasted and cooked through.
- Remove the corn from the grill and allow to cool until it can be handled. Hold the corn vertically and use a large chef's knife and cut straight down along the cob to slice the kernels off.
- In a medium bowl, combine the halved tomatoes, sliced onions, chopped avocado and corn.
- Prepare a simple dressing of olive oil, apple cider vinegar, salt, pepper and oregano. Pour the dressing over the salad and stir to combine.
