In our area avocados are readily available, so we use them in everything. We top our breakfast eggs with slices of avocado, stuff our tacos, and make guacamole weekly! I grew up on my uncle Mike’s avocado farm, and as kids we would play hide – and seek in the orchard, along with the rats and snakes. We played for hours but also ate lots and lots of avocados. As I visit my farmer’s markets weekly, I do look for fresh produce, and corn was available. So, why not add it to your avocado-guacamole. Melissa’s produce provided me with fresh avocados and all the fixins.
Use fresh avocados that are fully ripened.
Fresh corn can be easily stripped by using a sharp knife.
Cilantro the key to the best guacamole. If you’re not a fan, you can use parsley.
I like to mix up my presentation with a little healthy and a little naughty.
These are the organic chips I serve with all my dips.
- 4 avocados, pitted
- Zest and juice of 2 limes
- ½ ear of fresh corn kernels
- ¼ cup finely chopped red onion
- ¼ cup finely diced fresh cilantro
- sprinkle of nigella seeds
- 2-3 drops of Tabasco
- salt and pepper
- In a medium bowl, mash the avocados.
- Add the remainder of ingredients.
- Gently mix together.
- Serve with chips or vegetables.
- Taste for extra seasonings.
Enjoy my friends,
Mary

Love the fresh corn in your guacamole.
Hi Cathy, The Guac-lock actually worked! I love coking from my pantry or refrigerator ingredients, always a surprise when things work out.
Besides, I love uncooked fresh corn…
