Summer Corn Salad with Avocado and Basil

INGREDIENTS

2 ears of corn, husk removed
1 persian cucumber, diced
1-2 handfuls cherry tomatoes, halved

lots of torn fresh basil and cilantro
avocado, diced
my go-to salad dressing

SALAD METHOD

1. Bring a pot of water to a boil. Add 1 tablespoon kosher salt.
2. Cut/break ears of corn in half and drop them in the water for 2-3 minutes. Drain.
