Fresh Corn, Cherry Tomato & Avocado Salad

[Xerxes]

Hi there! I hope you're all okay, but I wanted to share this really yummy recipe for a salad I've been loving lately. It's got fresh corn, cherry tomatoes, avocado—basically all the good stuff! hehe

Ingredients:

• 6 medium ears of corn, with the silks and husks removed
• ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
• 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
• 1 tsp Dijon mustard
• ¼ tsp ground red pepper
• ¼ tsp kosher salt
• ¼ tsp freshly ground black pepper
• 2 cups halved cherry tomatoes
• ½ cup finely chopped red onion
• 2 tbsp chopped fresh chives
• 1 large avocado, cut into ½-inch pieces
• 1/3 cup small whole basil leaves
  
  Instructions:

1. Heat up a large saucepot of salted water until it's boiling away happily. Then toss in your corn and let it cook for about 3 minutes until it's just tender. Once done, rinse the corn under cold water, drain it, and cut those juicy kernels off the cobs.
2. In a big bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, ground red pepper, salt, and black pepper until it's all nice and combined. Then, stir in those halved cherry tomatoes, chopped red onion, chives, and the corn you just cut off the cob.
3. Now, here comes the creamy goodness—gently fold in those avocado pieces and the basil leaves until everything's evenly coated in that tasty dressing.
   
   Oh, and here's a little tip: If you want to give this salad an extra kick, you can sprinkle some crumbled feta cheese on top before serving. It adds a nice tanginess that pairs beautifully with the sweetness of the corn and tomatoes. Enjoy!
