Ingredients for Summer Corn Salad with Avocado:
This corn salad is loaded with all the best ingredients of summer. P.S. Do not skip the garlic, the dressing will mellow it out and it gives every bite irresistible flavor. This recipe has a short list of ingredients but it really doesn’t need anything more. It is an easy, excellent salad.
How to Cook Corn on the Cob:
There are several methods of cooking corn and all of them will work for this corn salad. We used grilled corn in this recipe because grilling gives it a smokey sweetness that is completely irresistible.
- How to grill corn on the cob: Grilling corn in husks is easy. We pre-soak the corn with the husks on and then place them directly on the grill for 18-20 minutes on med/high heat rotating every 5 minutes. You can also grill corn in foil if you don’t have time to soak the corn.
- How to bake corn on the cob: Place husks directly on the center oven rack and bake at 350˚F for 30 minutes. No need to soak the corn.
- How to boil corn on the cob: This is the quickest method. Place the shucked corn in a pot, cover with water, bring to a boil and add sugar (yes sugar!) then boil 15 minutes. Click here for boiled corn recipe.
Can I substitute with Fresh corn with Frozen Corn?
Yes! When corn is out of season, it is ok to use frozen corn. Canned corn will also work when you aren’t able to find fresh or frozen, but frozen is the better substitute. Sometimes it is even easier to find organic corn when it is frozen. Follow the package instructions to prepare frozen corn.

Hi! I'm Natasha Kravchuk. Here you'll find delicious, trusted recipes with easy step-by-step photos and videos. 
This is such a refreshing and easy to prepare salad. We serve it with ribs and crab cakes always to rave reviews. Your recipes are a delight to prepare, serve, and especially eat!
Thanks so much for the great feedback!
Potato salad is a great favorite side dish for our bar be ques
Thank you so much for sharing that with me, Anjie!
What temperature is this supposed to be eaten at? I’m making it to go with barbecue.
Hi Michelle. You can eat it fresh after you make it or refrigerate it until ready to eat.
I just made this for the first time to take to a bbq tonight. It is fantastic. My husband can be picky. He loves it as well! Definitely a keeper to make again.
That is the best when picky eaters love our recipes too! Thank you for sharing your awesome review, Kim!
I could not get enough of this salad! It was a big hit in our family and will be enjoyed over and over again. I made it exactly as written. I wouldn’t change a thing.
So glad you loved it!
This salad tasted like summer! But I will be making it all year. Scrumptious! Thank you Natasha.
You’re welcome! I’m so happy you enjoyed it, Susan!
Wow! My whole family loved this salad and it’s so refreshing.
Thanks for the recipe
You’re welcome! I’m so happy you enjoyed it, Jayashree!
We are that family to which cilantro tastes like soap. Can you substitute fresh flat leaf parsley?
Hi Monica, I looked through this recipes comments and found my readers have substituted cilantro with arugula, dill or parsley. Any of those will work here based on your personal flavor profile preferences. I hope this helps.
The best salad ever!!!! You can really use and ingredients you have in your kitchen with the corn and avocado. We have eaten this all week!
Hi Liz! We love this salad and have been eating it all summer! Glad you love the recipe.
I plan on making this salad for a girlfriend luncheon. How many people does it serve?
Hi Betty! The number of servings is listed in the recipe card. This serves 6 (as a side salad). You can increase or decrease the number of servings and it will convert the ingredient list for you.
I think I may have commented before but if not, I made this for a luncheon party and it was very good. I used less corn because I thought there was too much and despite my best efforts at ripening the avocados – they were still hard after 4 days in a paper bag with bananas. I think with proper ripe avocados this would be even better.
Haven’t made it yet, but it’s screaming for black beans.
Those would be a great addition! You may also like the cowboy caviar recipe.
I made this for July 4 and it did not disappoint! It is so fresh and delicious cooked my corn in mt new air fryer. I had numerous compliments. Thank You Natasha!
You’re very welcome, Peggy! I’m so glad it was enjoyed!
Hello, can this be made the day before? Can’t wait to try it.
Hi Diana, that will work. I had our leftovers in the fridge for 2 days, and it was as good as the first day. The lime juice in this recipe helps to prevent browning but over time they still turn brown. It might be fine to make it ahead but adding the avocado last minute is simple and a great idea.
This is now my annual 4th of July salad. Everyone loves it! It’s colorful, festive and so easy. Thank you!!
You’re welcome, Cathy! So glad it’s become a favorite!
Recently had your Avocado Corn Salad at a party and had to have the recipe! It was delicious. I made it for a Father’s Day dinner and everyone loved it. Its quick and easy to put together. Plus have the ingredients. Will be making it a lot this summer.
That’s wonderful, Fran! I’m so glad you love the recipe. Enjoy!
I bookmarked this recipe quite a while back but just tried it today for the first time. This is a keeper. Everyone loved it and it is so easy! Thank you for a great recipe.
I’m so glad that you loved our recipe, Carly!
I just made this and it’s seriously delicious! It was super easy to make and went great with grilled chicken!
I’m so glad you loved it, Bethany!
Another hit from Natasha’s Kitchen – one of my go-to recipe blogs. Fast and very tasty – was popular with the entire family.
Thank you for the wonderful feedback. I’m so glad it was a hit with the family!
This is my favorite salad. Sometimes I toss in a cup or so of rotisserie chicken and have this filling, delicious salad for dinner for a couple of days. So good. No bought dressing because this one is perfect.
I love most of your recipes.
Thank you, Joyce! I’m so glad you are loving the recipes!
Delicious! Made it for a a second time for a BBQ today. This is now permanently on my roster! Thank you.
That’s amazing, Toni! I’m so glad you loved it.
I used sweet summer corn and didn’t cook it (missed that part of the instructions!) — no need, it was delish!
I make this multiple times every summer. Everyone I make it for loves it. It is so good. Thank you for sharing!
That’s great, Natalie! So glad to hear that.
I found it easier to shuck the corn before cooking it. Otherwise the recipe is delightful. LOL
This has become my family’s absolute favourite summer salad. As soon as avocado season hits, we are buying in bulk and making this salad every night. Love it! Thanks Natasha <3
That’s wonderful! I can eat bowlfuls of this salad!
We just made this salad today and everyone loves it! Thank you so much for sharing. We will make it again.
You’re very welcome! I’m glad it was enjoyed. 🙂
Thank you, Natasha, for this wonderful recipe! We had cherry tomatoes, avocados, three ears of corn and cilantro that we had to use up, and wow! This was perfect. We love it!
Hi Fil! You’re very welcome. I’m glad you loved it.
WOW Natasha! This is my new “show off” salad! Absolutely DELICIOUS combination of flavours, textures – and colours. The added zing of the lime and coriander is soooooo GOOD!
Thank you for this recipe 🙂
You’re very welcome, Lou! I’m so glad you love the recipe. Thank you for the feedback.
Used canned corn, was fabulous. Very tasty and easy to make. Coriander is one of the stars of the salad I think.
So glad you enjoyed this recipe!
So glad I found you!! I love your recipes and videos are wonderful. I’m 73 and still have to cook most days and your recipes have given me a fresh new desire for cooking 😊.
Was wondering what serrated knife you use for chopping? Thanks again
Claudia Press
Aww, that’s the best! Thank you so much for sharing that with me, Claudia. I’m all smiles. You can find our favorite kitchen tools in our Amazon Affiliate Shop HERE.
I’ve made this salad many times and loved it! My question is, if needing to prepare the night before would you recommend making everything and just waiting on the avocado? Or would you recommend keeping all the veggies separated into bowls and tossing everything last minute. I especially want to get the corn cooked and off the cob the night before, but would also love to have as much of the salad ready to go as possible since I’ll be short on time. Thanks!
Hi Carey! I had our leftovers in the fridge for 2 days, and it was as good as the first day. The lime juice in this recipe helps to prevent browning but over time they still turn brown. It might be fine to make it ahead but adding the avocado last minute is simple and a great idea.
This was excellent. I served it with various veggie burgers, and smooshed, crispy roast red baby potatoes for Labor Day. We had 8 people total so for the corn salad I increased the corn, onion, avocado, cilantro, olive oil & lime, and S&P. I left the amount of tomato at the single recipe portion as not all guests are tomato fans. The salad was still great! A hit with everyone.
Yum! That’s just awesome! Thank you for sharing your wonderful review, Lisa!
I make this with a bag of frozen fire roasted sweet corn. It comes out delish!!
Sounds amazing! 🙂
This is very yummy! I would never cook my corn 15 minutes. It tastes much fresher if you only simmer it 5 minutes. It’s overcooked at 15 minutes.
Thanks for the comments and feedback, Melanie.
I had fresh corn and cherry tomatoes from my garden and decided to try your recipe. I love to try new recipes, usually with mixed results, but both my husband and I loved this recipe! He even said we should serve it when we have friends over for game night!
I didn’t grill the corn…just cooked it and cut it from the cob. Still very tasty! Thanks for a great recipe!
That’s just awesome! Thank you for sharing your wonderful review, Mary!
Absolutely fabulous with great summer flavors! Sharing recipe with family and friends and directing them to your site. Love your recipes and so glad you have nutrition shown.
Aww, that’s the best! Thank you so much for sharing our recipes with them, Glendel! I’m so glad you’re all enjoying them!
Made this tonight and the entire fam loved it. Leftovers tomorrow will be even better I bet!! Thank you so much
You’re very welcome! So glad it was enjoyed. 🙂
Second time making this salad. Great both times ! Did add a little more avocado second time around. Goes with everything ! Tonight … STL pork steaks !
I’m so happy you enjoyed that. Thank you for sharing that with us, Kit!
Fabulous and easy, beautiful presentation with lots of color! Family favorite!
Good to hear that, Kyle!
I’m sorry but I have a question – I am taking this amazing looking salad to a pot luck dinner. Will the avocado turn brown if I add it before I go or should I add it when I get there?
I love your recipes, Natasha, so please help with my question. The stuffed mushrooms are to die for! Thank you so much
Hi Patty! The lime juice in this recipe helps to prevent browning but overtime they still turn brown. Depending on how far in advance you are making this salad, it might be fine to make it ahead and take it but adding the avocado last minute is simple and a great idea.
Natasha, I made your avocado corn salad for dinner tonight with two substitutions. I didn’t have limes or cilantro so I used lemon juice and some chopped arugula. The flavor profile was different but my husband and I enjoyed it a lot. I look forward to making it again with the lime and cilantro. Thank you again for another delicious recipe.
That’s wonderful! So glad it was enjoyed, thank you for sharing your experiment with the recipe. 🙂
This is a delicious salad!!! I used home grown tomatoes (we have an abundance) and the only other things I did differently was that I barely “warmed” my corn in a skillet so that it was crunchy, and I didn’t have a fresh lime so I used fresh lemon squeezed over it. Thanks for such great recipes!!! This is definitely one of my favorites.
Hi Karen, thank you for your good comments and feedback. I hope you’ll enjoy all the recipes that you will try!
My husband hates cilantro! Can another herb be substituted for the cilantro? Dill or parsley?
Yes, that would be fine. Either of those would be great.
This salad is absolutely delicious! I made it exactly as written. My husband and I gobbled it up! Thanks Natasha for another fantastic recipe. I’ll be making this all summer!
So glad to hear that, Joan! Thank you for the review.
I made this today to go with my yummy black bean burgers and Oh My Goodness!! This is an amazing salad!! The flavor is just outstanding! My hubby kept telling me what a fresh and delicious flavor it had. To be honest, with so few ingredients, I didn’t have high hopes for a lot of flavor but WOW! Amazing flavor! We were gobbling up every bit! As long as fresh corn on the cob is being sold in New Hampshire this summer, this salad will be on our table once a week! Thank you so much Natasha for another winner! Your recipes are truly wonderful.
Hi Joan! I’m so glad you loved it. Thank you for the wonderful review. 🙂
This sounds delicious, BUT I hate cilantro! What would be a good substitute? Thanks.
Hi Amy, you could use dill or chives, or just leave it out and it will still taste great.
Ran across this recipe and decided to add it to my July 4th menu. Wow! We enjoyed this salad so much that I’m making it again for my church’s cookout this coming Sunday. Can’t wait to share it with other church members!
That’s just awesome! Thank you for sharing your wonderful review, Sylvia! I hope it’s a hit with your church members! Thank you for sharing!
This was really, really good! Would absolutely make it again!
I love to hear that, Vicki! Thank you for your great feedback!
The corn salad was so easy and delicious that it was hard to stop eating it all!!
I’m so happy it was a hit, Joanne! Thank you so much for sharing that with me!
Can I swap the lime juice for lemon juice? Love all your recipes!
Hi Liz, yes, that will work, they are interchangeable in this recipe.
Made this for 4th of July celebration and it was hit and quickly gone! Fabulous…..
Thank you for sharing, Sandee. I’m happy to hear that.
I eat this several times a week. Also good on top of fresh grilled salmon, I just love it, my favorite thing!!!
Yum, that sounds delicious! Thank you for the review, Susan. So glad you enjoy this salad.
I have tried a lot of your recipes and they are delicious. You are my go to to find recipes. Thank you for sharing!
Hi Pat! I am so happy to hear that. Thank you.
I have made this several times and it is always a hit! For people wondering if the avocado will turn brown… I’ve never had an issue with this happening even after a full 24 hours in the fridge. I think the acid from the lime juice prevents it. Thank you, Natasha, for posting this recipe!
Yes, that’s exactly right. Good to know that this is always a hit!
Favorite salad. I am at the lake and just roasted a bag of frozen corn on a griddle on the BBQ with salt and pepper. The Lazy Man’s way but looked nicely roasted and tasted great
Thank you so much for sharing that with me, Sue! I hope it was a hit!
This salad is delicious. I will be making it all summer long. The dressing really pulls it all together.
I’m so glad you enjoyed it, Kristin! Thank you for sharing your great feedback with me!
I would like to make this dish. Simply want to print the recipe. Your system does not allow that. I must launch something that I find unnecessarily cumbersome. Frankly, I don’t want the hassle. Sorry your site is not user friendly – like many well known cooks/chefs.
Hi Carol, you can easily print this recipe. I have just tried it and it works fine. All you have to do is click on Jump to recipe to go to the recipe card, click Print then save it as PDF and you can print from there. Hope that helps!
You Can Highlight and Copy, then open Word or whatever you use and paste. It’s easy and you can even include the picture if you want.
I find the website very user friendly…. from the “jump to recipe” button to the “print” button being right there by the recipe. Printed for me with no issues!
My friend served this the other evening with pulled pork and it was off the chart delicious! I am sending the recipe to my friends!
So glad to hear that Camille! Thank you for sharing my recipe.
Last week I make Baked Chicken Drumsticks they are so tasty.
Delicious Salad! I made a mistake and put cucumber in it lol still delicious! Will try it next time without cucumber.
Had to use canned corn but was still amazing!
Hey Natasha,
Can you please add the serving amount in the Nutrition Facts. Is it per 1/2 cup or 1/3 cup. Also if possible to add it in all your recipes.
Thank You
Hi Margrit, I didn’t really measure it that way but the whole recipe can serve 6 as a side dish. Just divide it into 6 to get the exact serving size.
One of my family’s fave salads. Usually I use fresh corn in season but tried last night with frozen. Still just as good!
That’s a great idea! Thank you so much for sharing that with us!
Hi Natasha,
I just love you recipe for the Avocado Corn Salad. It is now my go-to-salad for all occasions. It’s so tasty and cool with great flavors…I just love it. Thank you for sharing it. Happy Holidays & a Blessed & Healthy New Year 2022
You’re welcome! I’m so happy you enjoyed it, ML!
I love this recipe!!! It’s a hit with bbq’s during the summer!!! It’s so refreshing Love love love this recipe!
I’m so happy you loved it, Aneela! Thank you so much for sharing that with me.
Hi Natashia love your recipes
Hi Elvira, great to hear that you are enjoying my recipes!
Hi Natasha, I will definitely try this recipe. It has all my favorites. My only concern was will the avocado keep its color and not turn brown if it is kept in the fridge for a few hours before serving? Thanks for all your recipes they are wonderful and I very much enjoy your videos.
Hi there, that sounds like a good plan. I had our leftovers in the fridge for 2 days, and it was as good as the first day.
Cut the avocado in cubes and keep it separately of the rest of the ingredients, put the seed of the avocado in the middle of the cubes, add the cubes only before serving. That keeps the avocado green since it prevent it from the oxidation.
Old trick used widely in Southamerica.
Thank you Natasha. I’m late to the party here but count me in as an enthusiastic proponent of this recipe. I recently made it for a small but special party where each guest brought a menu item. Someone else wanted to bring the salad but I insisted, “No! I am preparing the salad and I guarantee you will love it!” And oh yes, did they ever. The main course that evening was cold poached salmon and it all went so well together on the plate and palate. I used the recipe ingredients and amounts exactly as written by Natasha. My little tomatoes were half red and half yellow. Absolutely perfect. When I made this corn avocado salad another time I added a few fresh from the garden radishes sliced very, very thin. I thought they added a nice crunch and a little extra zing but did not appreciably alter the taste of the salad.
Yum! That sounds like an amazing dinner! I bet this was so great paired with the salmon! Thank you so much for sharing that with me!
How many cups of frozen corn if substituting for the 3 roasted cobs?
Hi Jan, fresh corn will give you the best flavor, but sweet canned or cooked frozen will also work. There are about two ears of corn packed into a can of corn.
The Corn Salad was very good but next time I make it I won’t put in so much onion
Hi Brenda, we love onion, but you might also consider using a sweet vidalia onion or red onion which are less potent than yellow onion. Even chives would work here.
Looking to make this for next family get together. Can I use frozen corn or corn from can ?
Hi Irma, fresh corn will give you the best flavor, but sweet canned or cooked frozen will also work. There are about two ears of corn packed into a can of corn.
I love this recipe! I also add a can of black beans, tail off shrimp AND one of my avocados was bad so I added 2 little containers of Kirkland Organic Guacamole from Costco with 1 avocado and boy was this delicious!! The guacamole really took it to an even better level. This is dinner tonite! Tge shrimp and beans had some protein and make a heartier meal.
Thank you so much for sharing that with me, Randi! I’m so glad it worked out well with those substitutions and additions!
Absolutely delicious!!! We are not fans of cilantro so we have made without. Would you suggest any different green?
Hi Mary, dill works well with this salad also, or chives.
I want to make this salad for a party this weekend. We need to travel an hour for the party…do I need to worry about the avocado turning brown?
Hi Tracy, If the avocado has dressing on it it will be fine. If serving separately I recommend spraying some lemon juice over it to protect it.
My husband and I made this today…it was excellent
Grilling the corn was perfect
I sliced two big pieces of red onion, brushed with olive oil and he grilled that as well Chopped and added to salad…delicious
For me this just needed a little extra salt and only two tablespoons of fresh lime juice
Excellent recipe…thank you Natasha…your recipes are always easy to follow and yummy
Hello Joan, thanks for sharing your experience making this recipe, and good to know that it was a hit! That’s a good addition to the recipe, feel free to change it up a bit according to your personal preference.
I made this for the first time today and love how easily it comes together. I did add a little cayenne to give it a bit of heat. I think a sprinkle of Tajin would’ve been awesome as well; but I had just run out.
We love easy recipes! I’m so glad you do too! Thank you for sharing this great review and comment with me, Sandy!
I have cut up a chili dried mango in tiny pieces. It gave it just the right amount of bite. Got it at Trader Joes. Was great!
Delicious and healthy. I just added some jalapeño because i had a bit left. It gave it a great kick but didn’t’ overwhelm the salad. I’ll be sure to make it again.
Oh, I bet this is so good with jalapeños! Thank you so much for sharing that with me, Maria!
The Avocado Corn Salad is absolutely a 5⭐️ yummy! I followed the recipe (except I used half of small white onion).
Next time, I will halve the recipe, because we are empty nesters. I’m curious, as to how long the avocado will hold up, when the leftovers are refrigerated. I tossed the avocado in the lime juice, before adding in the other ingredients, in hopes of prolonging their freshness.
I’m so glad you enjoyed it, Pepper! I had our leftovers in the fridge for 2 days, and it was as good as the first day.
It was the hit of the party!!!
So easy to make and absolutely delicious. I’m always looking for recipes to use up the left over corn on the cob. This one checks all the boxes.
I followed the basic recipe for the ingredients; adding more of some and less of others. Can’t go wrong with this recipe!
Thanks for your review, Cynthia. I hope you’ll love all the recipes that you will try!
I made this for the first time today for a family cookout. I was a bit nervous how it would turn out but it was delicious! It is easy to make and isn’t very time consuming which I like. I’ll be making it again tomorrow for another cookout.
We love quick and easy reacipes! I’m so glad you enjoyed it, Kendra!
I’ve made this several times now and it’s great! Really good with crumbled crispy bacon too
That’s awesome, Ella! I bet this is so good with bacon!
Made this salad today to see how it tastes before making it for my family this weekend and it is DELICIOSO😋😋😋. My avocado and corn loving sisters are going to love this. Thank you for a fresh delicious salad.
You’re welcome, Rosa! Thank you so much for sharing that with me. I’m so glad this was a hit!
Making this for a bbq this weekend! So excited to try this recipe
Sounds great, Debbie. I hope everyone will love it!
Making it for tomorrow’s BBQ with the family, can’t wait to eat it. Thanks for sharing
You’re welcome, Lori. That sounds like a great plan! I hope it becomes a hit.
So very good. Didn’t use all of the tomatoes but added some black beans. Used roasted corn, garlic infused olive oil and skipped cilantro. Def will make again.
That sounds delicious with beans! Thank you so much for sharing that with me!
I haven’t made this yet, but LadySam I really like your additions 😉 I’m one of those people who just can’t eat cilantro without a weird taste. I’ll be heading to the store to make this today!
Loved this recipe. It was so fresh! What is the suggested serving size? 1/2 cup?
Hi Scarlett, this recipe serves 6 as a side. 1/6th of the recipe would be the serving size. I wish I measured it by cup for you. I hope this helps.
DELISH summer side! We are bringing this dish to a friend’s dinner party tonight as a side with cod croquettes. Pure YUM
Sounds like a great plan. I hope it becomes a hit!
I am so happy with your recipe. I love the Avocado Chicken Salad with corn. this is so nice. My family love it.
I’m so happy you enjoyed it, Monica!
I’ve been wanting to make this since the first time I saw it. Served it tonight with cilantro lime chicken thighs and white rice. It was wonderful…easy to put together and so flavorful! My teenage boys really liked it and took such big helpings I almost didn’t get any! Will make this again and again.
Hello Sharon, that is a great review and feedback. Thank you for sharing that with us! I’m happy to know that your family enjoyed this recipe.
Going to make this ahead as everyone has said it is just as good as the first day. Only question is do you make it with the avocados in it as well … don’t they brown ahead of time? Thanks!
Hi Gita, This salad contains lemon which will preserve the avocado for a bit longer allowing the avocado to stay green.
I LOVE this recipe and we made it soooo many times last summer, making it tonight for Hubby’s Birthday. But it does NOT contain lemon, you have lime in the recipe. LOL
Oh dear, I meant to say lime, not lemon, but thankfully they are really interchangeable in this recipe.
Can I substitute for cilantro I just do not like it.
Hello Cindy, you could try adding fresh parsley to taste. I think fresh dill would taste great also in place of cilantro.
Fabulous salad. I added cooked shrimp and elevated it even further. Definitely a keeper!!!
Thank you so much for your nice comments and feedback, Janet. Glad you enjoyed this recipe!
I make the avocado corn salad all the time but not enough. I add shrimp to make it a meal.
Yum! Great idea! Thank you so much for sharing that with me.
What a great salad to serve at a bbq! I prepare it in the morning so it deepens in flavor. Everybody loves it and it’s healthy and delicious. Dennis your other recipes as well!!👏
Perfect for a BBQ! I’m so glad you enjoyed it!
Can I make this salad ahead of time? Like a few hours before the party. Thank you!
Hi Wei, making it ahead will work; I had our leftovers in the fridge for 2 days, and it was as good as the first day.
I made this today, but I only put in half the cilantro.
Good and healthier than fries.
Al
I’m so glad you enjoyed it!
Made this tonight, so very yummy!
I’m glad you enjoyed it, Pam!
Will this recipe keep if I make this a day ahead and add the avocado just before serving? Also, could I add Israeli couscous to this salad to bulk it up a bit? If so – would you recommend adding in addition to the stated ingredient amounts, or sub in for part of the corn? Thanks!
Hi Margaret, making it ahead will work; I had our leftovers in the fridge for 2 days, and it was as good as the first day. I haven’t tested making this with couscous to advise on the outcome. If you experiment, let me know how you liked the recipe
Saw it this morning and made it fresh as a side for fresh hamburger dinner. We even have one picky vegetable eater. Salad is delicius, we all love it. Thank you for the idea and video 🙂
You’re welcome, Olga! I’m glad the video was helpful!
This corn salad is fantastic, I made it recently and ,OMG, I was blown away that it actually tasted so good. BTW, I’m a big fan of your work. Thanks for sharing this.
That’s just awesome! Thank you for sharing your wonderful review!
This is a good salad recipe to try. How long will the salad last or hold before turning brown? I would like to make it for meal prep.
Thanks
Hi Ina, I had our leftovers in the fridge for 2 days, and it was as good as the first day.
I have made this a few times and made it again as part of my dinner this evening, it is delicious and I highly recommend trying this recipe. Natasha never fails to put out a great recipe!
Love it! Thank you for your great review and recommendation, Danielle. We appreciate it.
Wondering how it would be if I left out the cilantro? Many have a love/hate affair with that ingredient.
Hi Lynda, you could try adding fresh parsley to taste. I think fresh dill would taste great also in place of cilantro.
love this! my family gobbled it up fast
That’s just awesome! Thank you for sharing your wonderful review!
The best salad ever! Aways goes first. Thank you for the recipe.
Do you have any Napa cabbage salad recipe? Thanks.
I’m so happy you’re enjoying this salad, Nataliya! That’s so great! I do not at this time, but that’s a great suggestion, thank you!
Sounds delicious! If I use sweet canned corn can I use it straight from the can, or do you suggest cooking it?
Hi Beth, fresh corn will give you the best flavor, but sweet canned or cooked frozen will also work. There are about two ears of corn packed into a can of corn.`
How soon before my potluck should I make this? How long does it last in the fridge before avacodos begin turning brown?
Looks delicious!
Hi Sheila, I had our leftovers in the fridge for 2 days, and it was as good as the first day.
It was yummy! I made it and everyone loved it!
I’m so happy to hear that, Jasleen! Thank you for sharing that with me.
Hi, if I use canned corn how many cans should I use.
Thanks 🙂
Hi Norma, fresh corn will give you the best flavor, but sweet canned or cooked frozen will also work. There are about two ears of corn packed into a can of corn.
Sounds delicious and will be making this soon. If using frozen corn, how much do you use??
Hi Brenda, fresh corn will give you the best flavor, but sweet canned or cooked frozen will also work in the same amount.
Hi I made this tonight, I had to leave out the cilantro and onions because of my grandchildren . It was fabulous. I will make it again with all the ingredients . Thank you!!
Can’t wait to try the other recipes!!
Hi there Anne, I’m glad you enjoyed this recipe. I hope you’ll also love all the other recipes that you will try!
Hi What is a good sub for the cilantro? I don’t like it lol!!!
Hi Angela, you could use dill or chives, or just leave it out and it will still taste great.
Love this salad!
Reminds me of (the tastes of) summer.
Thanks for this recipe Natasha.
I’ve made it many times (to rave reviews) and serve it as a salsa/dip with multigrain tortilla chips (eg.Tostitos Scoops)
We eat this regularly in the summer! So good! I’m happy you enjoyed this recipe, KC.
I made the avocado and corn salad and it was delicious. Thank you so much for your recipes.
I’m so glad you loved the salad.
Delicious salad. thank you. also enjoyed your radish and cucumber sour cream salad.
You are so welcome, Stan. I’m glad you enjoyed my recipes!
Hi Natasha, made this last month for fiancé and I we loved it. I did add black beans to it though. Making tonight for a girls get together tomorrow but will add the avocado when I get there. Just can’t decide between the black beans again or as others suggested shrimp which also sounds great.
Sounds like a great plan. It really depends but both sounds good to me!
How many does this serve…..1 or 2?
Hi Pamela, this serves 6 as a size. We have that information on the printable recipe card. Simply scroll down to that section 🙂
I made this salad and it was delicious, husband loved it too. I cheated and used frozen grilled corn instead of fresh and it turned out great.
No worries and I’m happy to hear that you both enjoyed this salad. Thank you for sharing!
I made this and it was delicious, husband loved it too. I cheated and used frozen grilled corn instead of fresh and was very pleased how it turned out.

I made this salad more than any other this past summer. It is the perfect summer salad. The Avocado Chicken Salad is also fantastic.

Hi looking to make
Garlic cheese bread
Hi Becky, here’s my Garlic Bread Recipe.
Amazing! I forgot the romaine but it still came out great! I’m kind of thankful that I left the romaine out because we had leftovers and the lettuce would’ve likely wilted.
I’m so happy you enjoyed this recipe Yolanda!
3ears of corn is not enough for a 5-6 servings in my opinion. Dressing is enough for the 5 ears
I used. Dressing is so so very good!
Thank you for sharing that feedback with us Menger! I’m happy you enjoyed that!
Do you have a Cookbook? I live do many of your recipes, but would love to have a book rather than on my phone. (I’m 71 and not tech savvy)
Hello Donna, I am currently working on it. It’s taking me a while to complete it but I’ll definitely share it with you all when it’s ready.
This salad is a home run! I’ve made it several times now and just ran to the store for the ingredients as I’ve got a craving for it yet again. Thanks for the amazingly simple and delicious recipe.
You’re welcome, Joshua! Isn’t it simply amazing! We absolutely love this recipe also!
Can I put the avocado in and will it keep from turning brown? I making it in the morning and eating that evening. Thank!!
Hi Beth, If the avocado has dressing on it it will be fine. If serving separately I recommend spraying some lemon juice over it to protect it.
Like Beth, I will be making mine in the morning and serving it in the evening. Can I wait to add the avocado and dressing right before I serve it?
Hi Yvonne, yes that would work well.
This is absolutely delicious!
Thank you, Pam!
This was so good I kept adding leftover things from the fridge to it. Also, my husband has trouble with onions, but can have onion powder and chives, so I subbed that. (I know, those people that substitute and then rate things!) But it was still awesome. Also had some leftover cilantro lime riced cauliflower in the fridge and tossed that in, too. So yummy!
I am so happy to know that you and your husband enjoyed this salad! Thanks for your awesome review.
do you know how many days this is good for?
Hi Kate, I had our left overs in the fridge for 2 days and it was as good as the first day.
My whole family loved this salad so refreshing. so easy to follow your directions! i am so glad i have found you! You have not disappointed us yet! you give me inspiration to break the every day rut!Thank you!
You’re welcome, Michelle! Thank you for this lovely comment!
Love this recipe. I am a vegetarian and this is a tasty addition to my healthy meals. I added Italian seasoning to the vinaigrette for the extra flavor.
Yum! Great idea! Thank you for that feedback Kim!
This was a great recipe! I’ve been looking for healthy lunches/side dishes, and everything in here is wonderful. Nice to have something new to bring to the table.
It is fresh and colorful too! I’m so glad you enjoyed this recipe Cathy!
This is a beautiful and satisfying salad; especially perfect for the hot summer! Your site is beautiful also, with the stunning pictures! Your borscht recipe with meat is my all time favorite, but so many more are excellent as well! Thank you, Natasha for this site! If you ever write a book with all these recipes, I would be the first to buy it, to have everything in one convenient place!
You’re so nice! Thank you for this thoughtful feedback Joyce! I’m so happy you’re enjoying our recipes! We do have a book in the works, stay tuned!
