Roasted Corn Salad with Avocado, Mint, & Lime-Cumin Dressing

Another one that I am posting before trying. I think it'll be worth it. :)

Original blog post (with pictures!) is here.

Recipe

5 ears of corn
2 avocadoes, cubed
1 cup grape tomatoes, halved
1/4 cup red onion, sliced thin
Juice of 3 limes
1/3 cup olive oil
1 tsp Dijon mustard
Small bunch (about 5 tbsp) chopped fresh mint
1 tsp cumin
sea salt and fresh pepper to taste

Rub corn with some butter and season with salt. Grill for about 8-10 minutes on your BBQ or until they are slightly toasted. Allow to cool slightly.

Remove the kernels and place in a large mixing bowl with avocado, tomatoes, and onion.

Mix the olive oil, lime juice, dijon and cumin and pour over the salad. Season with salt and pepper.

Serve at room temperature or chilled.
