Avocado Corn Salsa – Sharon Palmer, The Plant Powered Dietitian


I don’t know about you, but I really love a good veggie-rich salsa dip to serve with whole grain crackers, corn or bean chips, and veggies. And this Avocado Corn Salsa is packed with extra goodies: avocados and corn (of course), but also green onions, cilantro, black olives, tomatoes, and jalapeños. This avocado dip recipe is not only delicious, it’s beautiful to boot! This healthy, gluten-free, vegan veggie dip is like a kaleidoscope of colors in a bowl. Set out a dish of this corn salsa at a party and just watch it disappear!

This salsa dip is also packed with nutrients, such as fiber, vitamins, minerals, heathy fats, and phytochemicals—plant compounds with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory actions. So, you can feel good about serving it at any time. While this avocado corn salsa is great at snack time or as an appetizer, it’s also delicious served as an accompaniment to veggie-burgers, lentil patties, veggie “meat” balls, tacos, burritos, and sandwiches. Bring it to your next party, potluck, or picnic as a delicious dish that will be the hit! With only 10 ingredients, not including pantry staples, it’s a go-to recipe you will turn to again and again.
