My first encounter with the creamy rich avocado was when I made this avocado paratha. I did not think beyond the paratha and was surprised to find salads with avocado. So, naturally I was excited when my friend Lacey suggested that I try out this salsa. It was also around the time the corn post was published and I was happy to buy more corn although I just freeze it to eat it as a snack and not for the winter and yes, you will find pieces of corn thawing away on the cutting board while I prep or cook.
She went home and immediately sent me a text of the recipe. After fiddling with the phone, on how to read the attachment I realized that I had most ingredients on hand or at least a decent substitute. The salsa was done in a matter of minutes and the pictures were done in a matter of an hour *sigh* those are the days where I would want to keep the camera and just munch on the stuff I cooked or in this case mixed.
Talking about the salsa, it was very tasty and the corn mingled perfectly with the avocado that I forgot it was salsa and treated it like a salad 
. I modified the recipe to suit my pantry and now let us mix up the salsa. Off to the recipe. Thanks Lacey.
