This corn salad with tomato and tortilla is simple, easy to prepare and made with ingredients you probably already have in your pantry. Corn, known in Spanish as choclo and elote, is one of my favorite ingredients to cook and eat in the summer because it is delicious and versatile. One of my favorite ways of eating it is simply roasting it on the grill with butter and salt, but I also like to prepare Envueltos de Choclo, Arepas de Choclo, soups, salads and much more. I added cherry tomatoes to this salad, because they add an intense color and freshness to the salad, that along with the creamy avocado and crunchy tortillas create a wonderful combination of textures and flavors. This corn, tomato and tortilla salad is an excellent accompaniment for main dishes of the summer, especially roasted meat, chicken or seafood. ¡Buen provecho!
