Avocados are probably one of my top 5 favorite foods. If guacamole was a food group that’d be even better. This past weekend, for a Saturday filled with football, we decided to spice things up and try a new spin on our favorite appetizer. The addition of corn was delicious and we even added this to shrimp tacos later that night. A definite make again in my book.
Corn and Cotija Guacamole
via closet cooking
ingredients:
1 c. corn (2 ears)
1 tbsp butter
2 large avocados, mashed
1/4 c. crumbled cotija, or feta
2 tbsp fresh lime juice (1 lime)
1 jalapeño pepper, finely diced
1/4 c. onion, finely diced
1 tbsp cilantro, chopped
salt & pepper to taste
directions:
Melt the butter in a heavy skillet over medium-high heat, add the corn, toss and let it sit cooking until charred. About 6-10 minutes. Mix it up and let it char again, about 6- 10 minutes and remove from heat. Finally, mix the remaining ingredients and enjoy!
optional: add diced tomatoes and/or bacon

This looks incredible! I eat avocado toast or have some in a salad just about everyday! Which I am not sure if that is way too much avocado in terms or health or not. lol
