Fresh Corn, Avocado, Tomato, Medley

Today was like every other Saturday.  Bountiful Baskets day.  We get a ton of produce for just $15 with the co-op.  I looked at all the fresh goodies we got this week. Aren’t they gorgeous!

They were all demanding to be eaten so I tried to come up with a way to try many of them at once!

First I shucked the corn.  If you haven’t done this before, simply tear off the husk.  Then stand the corn straight up and slice downward with a knife.  The corn slices right off.  Then turn the corn and continue shedding it off.

Next slice or chop the tomatoes, peppers, jalepeno, red onion, and avocado.  Toss everything in a bowl, stir up the dressing, and pour over the top.  Fold together gently.

    I just got home with my basket from Bountiful Baskets & I’m so glad to see corn again. It’s been a few weeks.
    Your salsa looks great & I’m going to make some this afternoon. Thanks for sharing!
