Corn, Avocado, Tomato, and Basil Salad
I was craving something healthy for lunch so I went to the fridge to see what we had on hand and found one ear of corn, an avocado, some grape tomatoes, a bit of cucumber, and a little bit of Fran’s Vinaigrette. I tossed it together and made this delicious and easy corn, avocado, tomato, and basil salad recipe. The salad took ten minutes to throw together and was tasty fresh, healthy, and delicious.

What delicious salad Pam !
Love the look of this salad 🙂
I love salads, especially changing it up from the regular leafy greens! I’m definitely making this this week – thanks for sharing! Pinned 😀
no joke, my most-often-used ingredients the past few months have been corn, tomatoes, avocados, cukes, and basil. this is awesome.
With summer winding down, I think we all find ourselves craving more salads than ever!
Wonderful combination of summer ingredients to make a delicious looking salad.
We always have corn on hand lately, so this is definitely a great clean-out-the-fridge salad!
I use this as a “dip.” Serve with the chips shaped like little bowls. It’s always a hit.
