Fresh Corn Salad with Avocado Cilantro Dressing is the very definition of a refreshing summer salad. The fresh corn from the cob is juicy and sweet. The Avocado and Cilantro Dressing is not only creamy, it is addicting too. I seriously could drink the dressing straight from a cup! When you mix the two together, you have an unforgettable salad that everybody will love!

 

This salad goes well with grilled beef or pork.

With love from my kitchen to yours,
