Description

A vibrant salad featuring crunchy cabbage, sweet corn, creamy avocado, and a zesty dressing, perfect for any outdoor gathering.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups green cabbage, shredded
  • 1 cup corn kernels (fresh, frozen, or canned)
  • 1/2 cup red onion, diced
  • 1/2 cup cilantro, chopped
  • 1 avocado, diced
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the shredded cabbage, corn, diced red onion, cilantro, and diced avocado. Toss gently to mix without bruising the avocado.
  2. In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, fresh lime juice, chili powder, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Whisk until smooth and creamy.
  3. Pour the creamy dressing over the cabbage mixture and use a spatula to toss everything together carefully. Each piece should be coated in the zesty dressing.
  4. Chill the salad in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to mingle and intensify.
  5. Serve cold as a refreshing side dish at your next BBQ, picnic, or potluck. Enjoy the compliments that follow!

Notes

For a vegan version, substitute the mayonnaise with a plant-based alternative. Add the avocado just before serving to keep it fresh.
