This salad is balanced in flavor and texture.
Although you might not find all of the ingredients throughout the year, this salad feels like a celebration for summer’s bounty. It is loaded with sweet corn and bright juicy tomatoes, velvety avo, and lots of crunch. Since it’s so flavourful, I find it a great choice to bring to potlucks instead of regular pasta or potato salad.
