Step 2
Transfer corn to a large bowl. Add the 2 cups shredded cabbage and 1 shredded carrot. Toss to combine.
Step 3
Dice the 1 avocado and thinly slice the 0.5 red onion. Add both to the bowl.

Pour the 0.5 cup green salsa over the salad and toss gently to coat. Serve immediately, garnished with extra salsa if desired.
