Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Heat a large skillet over high heat. Add the 3 cups corn kernels in a single layer and cook without stirring until charred in spots, about 5 minutes. Stir and cook 2 more minutes.

  2. Step 2

    Transfer corn to a large bowl. Add the 2 cups shredded cabbage and 1 shredded carrot. Toss to combine.

  3. Step 3

    Dice the 1 avocado and thinly slice the 0.5 red onion. Add both to the bowl.

  4. Step 4

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