  • 1/2 medium red onion
  • 2 plum tomatoes, diced cut in half and scoop seeds out with a spoon
  • 2 corn on the cob, cooked (optional)

  • Peel and dice your avocados and place in medium size bowl. Add the diced onion, diced plum tomatoes, corn (optional), black beans (optional), and cilantro. Combine.
  • Squeeze half a lime over the salsa mixture and add salt and pepper to taste. For a tangier salsa, add more lime. Combine.
  • Serve in a small bowl with a side of your favorite tortilla chips or as a topping on tacos.
