Charred Corn Avocado Salsa
Ingredients
This salsa is one of my favorites to make in the summertime! Sweet smoky corn, creamy avocado, crisp cucumber, and juicy cherry tomatoes come together with bright lime juice and a simple seasoning for a dish that’s light, colorful, and packed with flavor. It’s quick to throw together, easy to customize, and perfect for everything from backyard cookouts to an afternoon snack with your favorite tortilla chips.
