- 1⁄2 cup chopped red onions or 1⁄2 cup scallion
- 1⁄4 cup frozen sweet corn, thawed

- 1 lime (juiced)
- 1⁄4 cup minced fresh cilantro (coriander)
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

- 1 -2 clove garlic, chopped
- salt (to taste)
- fresh ground black pepper (to taste)
Directions
- Combine ingredients, mixing well.
- Cover and refrigerate for several hours before serving.
- Note: the best way to dice an avocado is to cut it in half up to the seed all the way around, wiggle it apart, take a knife and pry out the seed, then cut the flesh into a cross-hatch without cutting through the skin, then scooping out the fruit with a larger thin spoon, as close to the skin as you can get.
